Meet Helen Howes and Helen Butcher
Interviews with Quilting Artists • Educational, G, 01-Oct-2018
This modern quilt made of very modern cats, was a joint effort that the two Helen's hoped would cheer up their dear friend Kate during her chemotherapy. They organised the making of the blocks, and they had enough to make this lovely double size.

Helen Butcher will be sharing how to make the block with us later in the month.
