October 2024: Hoffman Fabrics, Quilt Passions Fabric Store, and More
Twenty-nine (29) members of the SBQG and African American Quilters Guild of LA (AAQGLA) had a WONDERFUL trip to Hoffman Fabrics. We learned so much about their 100 year history and the manufacturing of batiks from our host Jean. Hoffman provided each guest with a wonderful hostess gift and had a sale table of kits and precuts for purchase. Many of us went on to Quilt Passions where many of us bought even more batiks and patterns. And some of us even went onto M&L where we bought even more fabric (you can never have enough fabric!) It was a great time for all!
