10/6 - NT in the Wild @ Peg 8Q Solo Show

Welcome to another edition of NT in the Wild!!  This time, our roving reporter was out and about in Hillsborough and spotted several members of the Nimble Thimbles Quilt Bee at the Peg 8Q Solo Show.

One of the DOQ members had a BIG birthday and celebrated with a quilt show in Hillsborough:
