Thousand Islands Quilter's Guild

Well gues what ~ I am articled. Everyone kept asking me at Quiltfest ~ have you seen the new web site for the Guild. So I go in last night. Wow. This article was done a few months back in our little Newsleeter. Check it out. http://www.thousandislandsquiltersguild.com/membership.htm

Miss Lilly's Christening

We finally had beautiful weather for the weekend. Lilly, Joe & Barbara's 6 month old daughter was christened in Mallorytown United Church. Roger could not go to Kemptville for the celebration as there were 12 people at the ATV Coffee Run, but I took Mom and Barbara had a very nice reception. Unfortunately it rained in their back yard in the afternoon, but I don't think anywhere else.

Saturday was our Church Sunday School yard sale and we had a great time and made over $300. I will be glad when life slows down. Not sure when this is going to happen.

My long awaited Quiltfest starts on Friday. I am ready for the big event ~ all quilts (4) and wall hangings (2) are ready and bagged. I am working on Thursday and Friday, so hopefully we will have great weather ~ not too hot though. LOL.

The Loss of a Friend

This is a sad day today. Our dear friend Fred McNeely passed away. Fred is a retired farmer who just moved to a smaller home (beautiful though) and just could not cope with life's changes. RIP Fred.

Today is the day that I ventured beyond and created a Blog. I have been wanting to do so for some time. Very intimidating, but fun.
