This is our most recent comfort quilt:

We plan to present it to a special person in our community.

We will tell you more in February.

The Harlan Valley Quilters are off to a very Quilty start

in 2012

Our Snow this week had limbs snapping off the trees...

and falling on the power line to the

Harlan Community Hall.

We were concerned that we would be without power to run our sewing machines, lights, etc.......that just wouldn't do!

Consumer Power.....to the RESCUE !

The repair men showed up quickly and repaired the downed line.

Many Thanks.....Consumer Power

You guys are terrific !
