The Watson Quilters met Thursday night with Tammy Oakes, Becky Mortimore, Fran Phillips, Frances Nahkunst, Donna Whelan, Kathy Sloop, Linda Viets, her daughter and granddaughter, Anita Armstrong, Holly Holmes, and Kay Gibson attending. Kathy did a little “sew and tell” and we all worked on the cancer quilt blocks which Holly had cut and bagged. She did the hard part. Some took some home, so we shall see how many we have next week.

SUMMER HEAT
Get your electric bill? Yeah, me, too.
I thought daylight savings time was supposed to save us electricity? It didn’t save me any. Hmmm. So where does all this saved electricity go?
I sure hope those guys in Washington, D.C. aren’t getting it. We all know they can’t save anything.
It sure was nice to be inside in the cool though.
