Sharon did a stellar job with this. I think it was well worth the effort. She won several awards at fairs with this:
First and Best of Show at Calaveras County, First and Best of Division at Tuolumne County, First and Best of Show and Best of Division at Amador County, and First and Viewers Choice for needle work at the International Quilt Fair.

Fabulous! Congrats on all of the well-deserved awards.
ReplyDeleteSig, I am SO GLAD to find someone else who is (hopefully) highly outraged about the media's phrase "Gabby Douglas, the first African....etc." I'm just sick of it! She's an American girl, talented beyond belief, and they mention her hair (her hair? HER HAIR???) If these stupids did some reading maybe they would know about the Olduvai Gorge and the theory that modern mankind rose from that area making us ALL AFRICAN AMERICAN, if you want to go back in time and put 'labels' on us. I wish some scientist would come up with info that dark skin color had been found on ancient populations outside of Africa...maybe then we'd finally drop the 'African American' from our vocabulary. To me, it's getting to be as bad as 'ni...r.' I'm an American of Welsh/English/German roots. Sorry to rant on, but now I should feel better. Jeanne Evans :>)
