Dora's Eye Spy

Biscuit Sit Upons

Elsie made these for us to use while we quilt. They will feel so much better than the hard chairs we are used to. Thanks, Elsie!

It's Raining Cats

This quilt was inspired by blocks that were donated to MCC and salvaged by Dora.

Lisa pieced it and Dora quilted it by machine. It will be auctioned off at next year's event.
