Once completed, the project will be displayed at the library for this Remembrance Day, and many to follow. It involves squares of fabric, and the skillful talents of our on-staff quilters...

What a lovely evening that was! Thank you to the many many MANY people that came by Santa's Drive-Thru tonight. (We actually did lose track of how many wavers, and singers and HO HO HO-ers we saw - there was definitely only ONE dinosaur though )
