Jelly Race

On Friday, March 27 from 7 pm to midnight, we held a "Jelly Race".  It was CRAZY FUN!  Each person had a jelly roll and 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" pre-marked rectangles. They sewed a rectangle onto each strip, then ALL the strips went into a large paper bag.  These were pulled out at random and sewn end to end.  Along the way we played games, won prizes and ate dinner.  When midnight came, we announced the winners.  Megan Anderson got the farthest with her quilt.  Rachel O'Brien came in 2nd, Leanna Stauffer came in 3rd.  Can't wait for the next race on September 25th.  Hope to have you join in the fun!

Here are some pictures from previous Jelly Races.

On April 11th we held another "Jelly Race".  We started at 7:00 p.m. and finished at midnight!  If you thought you could sew fast, you haven't reckoned with my whistle and stopping to eat and play games. :-)
