Suzie and I were at a booth at the Village Quilters Quilt Show in
Libertyville this past weekend. QOV was their service project for the
year. They put together 38 quilts and awarded 18 at an emotional
program Saturday afternoon. What an inspiration! Some made for a
special Veteran and was able to award him/her their quilt. We had a
couple WWII Veterans, one being a Purple Heart recipient, Desert Storm,
Korean, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans present. Ellen said it
right...lot of love in that hall! Word has it they might do it again at
their next show. PS. Came home with 18
completed quilts! Thank you ladies!
Take this time to also remind you of the Sew-ins in Batavia and Elgin (see side of page for location and times.
Here are a few pictures from the show:
PSS..Also a huge thank you to the fabric donations this weekend!
