Back from the Fair -- OT

Fair went very well. I entered 7 quilts and got 4 ribbons. Mom and I had a
joint quilt that won a blue!

Finished packing up Mom's house and got her moved to Paducah. All of this
between Wednesday and Sunday. I feel like balloon with the air let out, but
happy that things went as well as they did.

How in the world did you do all that in 4 days? Mercy. I'll just bet you
feel like a deflated balloon. Congratulations on the ribbons. Polly

Many congratulations Joan!
This is getting to be a habit! You and your Mum must be so pleased.
I hope your Mum settles down quickly, so that you can really relax, and
know that she is being well cared for and is happy.
I bet she starts a quilting group!!

And one of the neat things about Mom's new home is that we pass Hancock Fabrics
on the way. Didn't get a chance to drop in last weekend, but it's on my 'to
do' list for the next trip.

If a quilter has to retire, Paducah is a great place!

Thanx for your kind words,
joan

Joan, Congratulations on the ribbons! One year my MIL entered quite a few
things (over 10 items) -- crochet, embroidery, sewing -- and they all won
reds or blues. She hadn't entered anything prior or after that one year.
One of her friends encouraged her to enter that one year, and she did. Her
things eclipsed all the others, I thought!

By the way, I'm not familiar at all with the new music groups. What is 311?
It caught my eye because that used to be my street address. LOL

311 is a rock/rap/reggae/jazz/whatever group originally from Omaha NE. My son
is the bass player and I work with the fans on the internet. They have a new
album and are currently on tour.

thanx for asking!
