Everyone come to support the show and the participating Mercado SAQA members.

The Church will take 30% of sales of quilts. An Exhibitor Information Form must be completed. Those have been collected and the quilts have been received from Las Cruces. They will be hung at the Unitarian Church on Saturday, June 23.

There will also be a Vendor Mercado on Sunday, June 24. If you have not let Gale or Betty know that you need a table, please do so asap. Church does not take a cut of these sales. Opportunity open to SAQA members who also have quilts in the SAQA LARG show at the church.
