I've had everything picked our for a Civil War Era quilt for 3 years, sitting neatly in a corner of my stash shelf, waiting for the right project to come along and I just know this is it. I've been waiting to get caught up on some things but that obviously is wishful thinking so I'm gonna dive in to the next BOW with both feet. Thanks so very much, Having the histories to read and enjoy is such a wonderful added bonus, I can't wait!!!

Did you know that the first woment to serve on a jury did so in Laramie, Wyoming in 1870. The newspaper printed taunts like: "Baby, Baby don't be in a hurry, your mama's gone to sit on a jury." A woman also acted as bailiff for the first time at the same trial. It was the Andrew Howie Case and I know about it becasue Andrew Howie was the brother of my 2 times Great Grandfather!JoAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16725295327088235909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281798505305352117.post-83321312799719417982012-05-30T19:21:31.570-05:002012-05-30T19:21:31.570-05:00Barbara and Becky.....you guys rock, I am so darn ...Barbara and Becky.....you guys rock, I am so darn excited!!!!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06598442425471755841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281798505305352117.post-9026445946631501002012-05-30T13:22:27.561-05:002012-05-30T13:22:27.561-05:00I am very much looking forward to this.

Our Guild (almost your neigbor, Barbara) has a challenge in July of doing anything that has an elephant or donkey or both--and the Guild member organizing it said to "honor our foremothers"--so I'm doing just that--have a wallhanging saying "Suffragette Stars, Amend 19, 1920, KS 1912" and has both a donkey and an elephant--both ladies!
