Louisville Nimble Thimbles Quilt Guild

08/26/2026

Thank you to all the LNT members that came out to the fair today on Senior Day to help us sew CC tops for the children at NCH, sew bags for the girls at Maryhurst, & to tie quilts for the beds put together by SHP. We got a lot done! A special thanks goes to Robbie for bringing us her collection of sewing machines to use, to those that pulled in heavy wagons loaded with sewing machines, Barbara for bringing her wagon full of quilting magazines (which were given away free as well as thimbles), those that helped set up our demo area & break down everything when the day was done. WHEW! Today was really a group effort & we saw a lot of familiar faces from previous years as well as new ones that asked us many questions about what we were doing & showed interest in our sewing guild. My heart runneth over with “Thanks!”

Thanks to Becky for her wonderful presentation Thursday the 20th of the State Fair Quilt block. As a retired teacher of 600 children a week Becky shared her organizational skills complete with explicit directions, informational board depicting how each block should be put together, AND blue ribbons for everyone that completed their block after today’s lesson!

Thank you to our Hospitality Committee that hosted LNT’s 47th Birthday party tonight at the Jeffersonian! Over 50 people enjoyed the decorations, food, games, prizes, & companionship of being with others that enjoy the love of sewing. There were 3 new members that joined our group tonight & also a few visitors-we hope that they come back to join our group!

We had lots of beautiful “sew&tell” items that were shared with the group at our birthday party August 6th, several that were then donated to Cuddle Care & SHP. If a prize would have been given for the most quilts completed & shared, it would have gone to David! Thanks to everyone for a job well done!

Yesterday August 1st, KET featured our guild on Kentucky Life. It is about 12 minutes into to show and you might have seen it before, but it is worth seeing again.

Thank to members that joined us at the Jeffersonian Thursday to bind quilts that were long armed at Quilted Joy last week. We completed 37 quilts & many went home with members to be completed before being sent to the children at Norton Children’s Hospital. 130 quilts went to Nortons today.
