I am hoping someone has found these two articles at the quilt show, a spool doily and a centennial pin.  It was on my Challenge piece and when I put the wall hanging away they were gone. They were seen during the takedown of the show. They could have fallen off and been wrapped up on another quilt show entry. Ladies, please check your quilts to make sure they did not bring anything extra home with them. If you find either one of these items or both, please bring them to our meeting this Tuesday May 14th. It would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Terri Duch

A Thank You - 2024 Quilt Show

 Dear One and All;

      Thank you for the part you played in putting on a quilt show to be proud of.
We had many wonderful comments on the show. The show could not of happen without the help of all the committees, volunteers, and quilters. Sharing your quilts and other items really made our show special.  

      We all should take pride on the level of the quilters we have in our guild. We heard many times on how wonderful the quality of the quilts were. Another comment was, they are all so good how do we choose only one quilt to vote on. And yet another comment was how nice the show looked. One lady was in awe of how many quilts we were showing when we put on a yearly show.

Thank you so much for your time, talent, and commitment. It is truly appreciated.
Terri and Kathy
Co-Chairwomen
