Quilts for Merryman House (Women's Shelter) in Paducah - Updated for 2010

Susanna - I do believe I will buy some of those quilt hangers in Paducah! You're not so crazy about my antique skirt hangers, huh??

[Tulpje]

LOL Ann, are those antique allready?

What I like about the one's QIAD sells is that it is SO easy to take your quilt out of them and change the scenety, without nails and hammers.

I once ordered the hangers they had for our rulers, and they send me the wooden quilt hangers, or maybe it was visa versa.
Anyway, I thanked them for having send them to me.
I guess they had read my mind.

Yep! Antiques! That's called 'make do' in this shaky economy!

[cindyg]

Ann, what a pretty quilt you made.

If anyone has a quilt for Merryman House and you are not going to be there - please send it to the QIAD store in Paducah. I am leaving on Friday for Paducah, so I'm afraid anything mailed now would not get to me before I leave.

The address is:

Quilt in a Day
Attn: Ann D.
119 North 4th Street
Paducah, KY 42001

I will call the store on Monday to let them know that something might arrive (since they have absolutely no idea who Ann D. is!!). The Meet N Greet is at the store the night before the class, and it will be just after the class that we will have our Show N Tell for Eleanor and Sue and then present the quilts to Wendy, the representative of Merryman House.

Thanks Ann. 2 Quilts are on their way to this address.
You are a doll to be doing this for us and the Merrymen House.

Another beautiful quilt has just arrived from Oasis/Linda!! I will be taking it with others to Paducah tomorrow. They will be received by a representative of Meryman House on Sunday, April 19, following our class and Show N Tell with Eleanor and Sue Bouchard.

I am so grateful to all who have taken the time to make a quilt for those in need in Paducah!!

Thank you, Linda - and ALL who have participated.

If you haven't already, take a look at Linda's quilt in the Photo section!

I'll TRY to remember to take photos of all the quilts on that Sunday!
