Cookbooks

Calico Cutters Quilt Guild published a beautiful cookbook last year and we have a few left for sale.  There are nearly 400 recipes in the cookbook all contributed by our members.  The cookbook is a 3 ring binder style, very sturdy.

A special feature are the quilts created especially for the cookbook and pictured on dividers for each section of the cookbook. 

Cookbook Cost—$18.00
