Folsom Quilt Guild...

I just read the following in the Folsom Quilt & Fiber Guild Newsletter (written by the current President Peggy Clark)
 
"....On Oct 6th , the Guild lost Emma Allebes.  Emma was a very active part of the guild and a very good friend of many years.  She will be missed.  I had many calls and suggestions from members that we rename the art challenge that Emma originated the 'Emma Allebes Art Challenge'.  This was approved unanimously by the board at the Monday night's board meeting."
 
FQFG - thanks for this nice tribute to Mom!

What is Your Emma Story?

This blog is a chance to remember and honor Emma by bringing us together in a way that can only be done through a medium like the internet. We love her, we will miss her, but she's here for a short time still, and we want to smile and cry and laugh together with her as much as possible while we can.

Emma has touched a monumental number of lives through her work as a mother, grandmother, friend, teacher, artist, and to Ted as a dear wife. There are countless stories that have already been told many times, and there are many others that we're going to learn for the first time as we read them here.

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS, STORIES AND PICTURES!!!

Not only will we be able to laugh and smile together, even after Emma has passed, but we will be sharing this blog with Emma. If you have a story, long or short, silly or sad, pensive or outrageous, please take some time and share it with us and Emma.

This is such a dear time for all of us. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers.

It's easy! To post to Emma's blog, send an email to emmaallebes.post@blogger.com. If you have a picture(s) that you would like to add, make it an attachment to the email. Your email will post automatically.

Please remember to include your name somewhere in the email/post.
