Sew Sew Sweet

The 4-H sewing group Sew Sew Sweet, led by Mrs. Penny Timmons and Mrs. Candy Adams, donated a quilt to the Burton Health Care Center, Burton, Ohio on October 10, 1997, for their one-year anniversary. They made the quilt with pieces of material that they made their projects out of. The quilt was hanging in the Sew Sew Sweet 4-H booth at the Great Geauga County Fair in 1997. The 4-H girls and their leaders and some parents enjoyed visiting with the residents of the Health Care Center after the quilt presentation.
