YOUR TOWN QUILTER ON DISPLAY The Racing Fingers Quilt Guild’s upcoming meeting on Monday, April 11, will feature a trunk show for Molly Waddell, an avid quilter from Port Orange who started quilting after winning a quilt from a local guild. Since then, she has won local and national awards, and her work has published in quilting magazines. She publishes her patterns under the name of “Double Diamond Designs.” The guild will meet at 6:30 p.m. at the Seabreeze United Church of Christ, located at 501 N. Wild Ave. Free and open to the public. Please park behind the church and enter through the kitchen door.
