HISTORY OF THE IDAHO PIECEMAKERS
October 2008
- Courtesy of Julia Ziegler
There have been lots of those who have been in and out, moved away, all due
to life happenings. I know I did this last year, but as we have so many new people, I think it bears repeating. I
would like to introduce to you the “founding members” of the Idaho PieceMakerS. I went back
through the lists and these were the names consistently coming up the first few years.
Original PieceMakerS
9-18-2001 –
17 names on the sign in sheet – of those 17, these are still coming on a regular basis
- Suzy M, Cindie G, Mary R, Bobbie S, Marlys B
Between Sept. of 2001 – 2002
Jacque R, Shirley
B, Connie T, Sue Lynn W, Barb W, and Wanda P
2003 – Added…
Nancy F, Kathy G, Lorinda H, Vicki K, Karen

2004 – Added…
Mary Ann E, Diane H, Kathy K, Linnie J, Bobee McC, Gloria K,
Ophelia H, Nancy W Dixie J, Wanda W, Donna J, Larry & Ruth R, Sandra S, and Anita S
33 Founders are still with
us. That’s pretty amazing.
And let’s not forget to mention and give ourselves
a pat on the back for the accomplishments of this group –
- Our
10th quilt show is coming up next year.
- Our contributions of over $10,000 in the
past three years to the community.
- Our monthly food donations to the Kuna Food Bank –
230 lbs in August alone.
- Our Treats for the Troops.
- And of
course we support Project Linus, Quilts of Valor and the Kare for Kids Kits.
While we are mentioning
the 10th annual show, the dates have been confirmed for
August 1st and 2nd.
And Larry Gebert will be there on Friday, July 31st.
