Anne Hindmarch |
Our October meeting featured a parade of winners from the show. All
ribbon winners were encouraged to bring their quilts in to show. Our
Best of Show Large winner was Anne Hindmarch for her quilt A Tribute to
Jane. Anne had been on a cruise ship in the Atlantic Ocean during the
show and did not know her good news for two weeks. Only the day before
the meeting did she learn that her prize was a Bernina sewing machine
from Ann Hudson's Bernina Sewing, Etc. in Ridgeland!

Our members brought in 67 pillows for our ongoing project of making pillows for children in hospitals. These pillows will be distributed to
Forrest General Hospital,
Wesley Medical Center, and
Marion General Hospital in Columbia. Several walker totes were also turned in. We have had a request for catheter bags and have learned that the walker totes can be used for this purpose also.

This is off topic, but I don't see any other way of making contact to ask my question.
Are there any crazy quilters in your group?
I hated I missed the show this year but am sure it was a great success without me. Pnuemonia made it impossible for me to attend.
Yes, we have members doing every type of quilting. Very little crazy quilting by hand, I must admit. Machine embroidery work becoming popular, too.
