We are a busy bunch of quilters that strive to provide quilts as our small and humble way of saying "thanks" to our returning troops. Rita Pennington (garipenn@att.net) is our "Drill Sergeant" and she keeps the (quilting) troops moving and motivated. We have 6 monthly sew-ins North of I88: St. Charles, Elgin, Rolling Meadows, Crest Hill, Geneva and Montgomery. See side bar for more info.

Day one at the show
Here are a few pictures sent by Cheryl of the show yesterday. What a busy booth we had and Thursdays are usually the slowest day of the weekend.
Some of our finished blocks:
The Make It booth where people walked in and made a block. The sewing machines were pretty busy!
PS. Anyone find a camera ..maybe from the last sew-in? Mom always said, I'd lose my head if it weren't attached :(
