American Panel Giveaway Winners!

 If you need to raise your faith in Americans you must go read the comments right HERE! Thank you all so much! I cannot watch the news any more since I feel like there is so much negativity and divisiveness. I think that is what "they" (who the heck is they, anyway??) want. We are more unified than separate! And that is a wonderful thing! Thank you all for taking the time to leave a comment on my blog or at the Humble Quilts facebook group that you can find HERE. 

The winner of the Old Glory panel is Quilting Babcia who wrote:

My ancestors arrived on the Mayflower, others around 1915 from Poland, and the Irish side a couple generations earlier. They all came to escape the conditions in their homelands, in some cases as teenagers knowing they would likely never see their families again, but with faith that they would find freedom and a better life here. I am indebted to them and all those who sacrificed to give all of us the lives we enjoy and all too often take for granted.



One of the George Washington panels are going to Cathy Washburn who commented on facebook. 
She wrote: As an American, especially a woman, we are very fortunate. We have more rights and privileges than almost any other country. My ninth great grandfather was born on a ship coming to America in the 1700’s. So I feel very lucky to be here.

Jocelyn is also a winner of a GW panel, She wrote:
Both of my parents are first generation Americans. They never took this freedom for granted. We truly do live in the greatest country in the world, as so many others are under oppression rule. I thank God for the freedoms that our fore fathers fought for. And all the veterans that help to keep us free!


And one more important unrelated item: 
The final 2 little swap quilts finally made it to their overseas destinations! Whoop! Whoop!
Denice's quilt made it to Rina in Sicily!

And Joanne's quilt made it to Sue in New Zealand!!

All 80 swap quilts are on the linky!  Check it out HERE!

This weekend is the Sisters Outdoor quilt show and <gasp!> I am not going! 
They are hanging 1/2 the quilts spread out more and it will be in the upper 90's. I normally would go early to avoid the heat, but I'll have to walk twice as far to see half the quilts. 
I'm going backpacking instead!

Have a wonderful weekend!
