Quilt Club in memory of Iva ( Susie ) Ellis

Quilt club was held last night in memory of my great grandmother's birthday.
She taught me the love of fabric and sewing. She would be 108. The picture in
the background is my great grandfather Rev. Wilmer Ellis. He was 3 years older
than her.

Quilt club discussed new projects to begin soon.
More on that later...

WaaaaaaaaaaaaaaWaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I messed around with my blog and lost my extra pages, all my side bar stuff.
Not sure what I did but I am too stressed to try to replace just yet. : (

I love Kentucky and horses.

I watched the dvd of  "Secretariat" today.

I love horses!
Don't ever let me go to the Kentucky Derby.

I would probably loose everything by betting on
something I "feel" would be a good choice. : )

Best of Show!



Last summer Quilt Club began talking about entering a quilt block for this years county fair fundraiser. The theme was "All Things Kentucky".
A few of the ladies did and a few of us didn't meet the deadline : ( me included. This one appears to have been a favorite with the judges. Way to go Amy!

And the UK Football and Basketball blocks were signed by the coaches. Great idea Billye!
I haven't heard what the silent auction total was but I think Good!
