After Party
We changed the name! Our evening party has not been a reveal of the awards for some time and this year it’s been moved to Saturday evening. So…”After Party”!
For the first time in recent memory, the last session of Empty Spools overlaps with our quilt show and Saturday is their free night. We are inviting the Session 5 Empty Spools students to this party to see the show along with MPQG members, partners, friends.
