Last winter Grammy started embrodering state birds and flowers on white fabric squares for a quilt. After completing all 50 birds and flowers we took it to Prairie Notions quilt shop in Allen, OK and they put it together for her, then quilted it. It turned out beautiful! Grammy gave the quilt to Mel and I for our birthdays and anniversary. How fortunate we are to have such an heirloom knowing how much work and love she put into it!
After some encouragement from friends she decided to enter it in the Pontotoc County Fair. The judging was today. We went to see what she had won and it was a blue ribbon! She was proud of that and you couldn't blame her for feeling that way.
We "celebrated" by going to Braum's and having ice cream.
