PMQG Doll Quilt Fundraiser for Oregon Ballet Theater
Hey PMQG - we are so excited about the Doll Quilt Challenge! We presented this at our meeting last week after a fun historic look at antique doll quilts put together for us by historian and collector Jan Gessin. After the presentation we were joined by Kristen Knapp of OBT who gave us some background on George Balanchine's The Nutcracker .
