Extension Club Enjoys Quilt Display
Theda Roach made a presentation of our of her quilts to
thirteen members of the Celeste Extension Homemakers
Club.
She displayed "Dutch Doll," "Bride's Bouquet," and
appliqué flowered quilt, and one that drew many words of
admiration, "Lone Star."
*Roach said quilts could be safely stored in tissue in
cedar chests, but should not be placed in plastic bags,
which do not allow the quilts to breathe.
Visitors, Carolyn Patterson and Jane McBride, attended
and Roach herself was a guest.
Alyne Ruff gave the devotional, "A Love Letter From
Jesus." Genelle Gibson served delicious refreshments,
which were enjoyed by all, including the bank employees.
The bank employees also were treated to a sight of the
quilts after the meeting broke up.

*I have since been told that quilts should NOT be stored
in cedar chests or quilt boxes...unless they are taken
out and refolded often.
