And then there was some exciting news from Gisela O’Connor, a citizen of Brazil, who shared the happy news that she will become a bona fide United States Citizen on Friday, September 27th !! Congratulations, Gisela, and welcome !

There was also a bit of oddity due to a pair of shoes . . . strange. Ah, well. To each his own. These were purchased from an outfit called InnerArtWorld.com. Each pair is quite unique.

And so ends another interesting, always colorful and fun Show and Tell for Blue Ridge Quilters. Tune in again next month for another adventure in talent, love of quilting, and beauty.
