Crafts day brings quiet focus to Buffalo County homemakers

At the Buffalo County Extension Homemakers annual craft day, 44 students embraced block and lap quilting, counted cross stitch, crocheting, needle work, and macrame. Veteran teachers like Donna Sebrecht led lessons while Agnus Grass and Evangeline Ludwigson shared laughs and tips amid a day of practice and camaraderie.

Beginning quilters share Windblown Square in full day class

Evangeline Ludwigson, a beginner, struggled with lap quilting patterns in a Saturday class. Mary Birchler led a full day session for beginners, praising hand sewing for its soothing quality and portable nature. Several students finished a one-block Windblown Square quilt and planned to gift or keep their work. Remarkably one student quips she learned nothing, amid a lighthearted day of sewing and socializing.
