National guardsman shows quilting is not just for women

Mineral Wells Index

By Mary Creighton | Special to the Index

The Mineral Wells Woman’s Club met Sept. 5 at the Woman’s Club Building for its first fall meeting.

President Sharon Owens greeted the members and guests then had a business meeting before lunch, which was provided by the members. Members were able to view the various quilts brought by presenters or by members before the program.

 After the meal, President Owens introduced the program. Judy Caldwell, Eric Olson and Betty Kidwell told the audience about their experiences with quilting. Each displayed some of the quilts that they made. Betty showed some of her quilts that have received blue ribbons at local craft shows.  Judy told how she began later in life but has really enjoyed quilting.

  • Reflections on Neighborhood Watch and Solicitations

    A couple of things happened that encouraged me to write this particular column. First of all, our neighborhood formed a Neighborhood Watch group. This is being encouraged by Chief of Police Dean Sullivan and supported by the Mineral Wells Police Department. As we have had one home invasion in our neighborhood (burglars broke in while the neighbors were asleep in bed), we really want to watch out for each other!
