Modern Solids Challenge Exhibit

The Challenge committee had a challenge in hanging all the beautiful entries in the "Modern Solids" challenge at the Richmond Memorial Library last week, but they succeeded in creating a fabulous display of the work submitted.  

Members- lease remember to stop in and vote for your choices for the awards.  Everyone is welcome to vote for the viewer's choice category.  If you can't get to the library, I hope these pictures will allow you to enjoy the quilts.
