We had a brief flurry of meal selling on June 21 when all the Meals-on-Wheels drivers were convinced to buy take-home dinners for themselves.

The quilt being worked on now started as an educational process. The young woman who owns it asked to watch it being set up, measured and pinned all before the first stitches were made. Evelyn Jewett, Sue Clough and Shirley Bowers were the expert quilters who quickly got the process going.
