    Hello, Awhile back I had asked for help with or how to do a Siggy Quilt. I got lots of response and wonderful help. Our Senior Apts is haveing a Holiday Craft fair on Nov 13th. The past 6 weeks I have been getting everyone to do a block of some kind. With a lot of pulling and begging I cant believe what happen. Almost everyone did something. There are different levels of talent. But each and everyone did great. Some are just signed, some a quote, or a picture. We have a lady here that also quilts and she offered to put it together and quilt it. When we hung it in the Club House you should have seen the faces of all. They are all so proud of their quilt. It will be raffled off on the 13th. The Craft Fair is open to all. But our people here want to win the quilt so it can stay hanging in the Club House. Oh did I mention some of our Men did a block too. It served as a great get together to do something and be proud of. Hope you enjoy this as much as I am getting all the blocks done.

    That is a great quilt and I sure do hope that one of the Seniors wins it. They all did great with their blocks. I would feel proud to have that hang in my home. But it would be so nice to have it stay in the Apts. so all can enjoy it!!
