Welcome to our Wyoming blog. On this blog I have been sharing how we came to move here and the 'adventure' we have been on every since. We started with a hillside, and today (6 years later) are finally putting in some landscaping. We are by no means done. I hope you will come along on our adventure.

I also have 2 other blogs. Big Horn Mountain Creations show cases my quilting and other artistic adventures. Decorating my Tin Shack, is about creating a home thru decorating. Both are on the side bar, I hope you will stop by.

Helping our American Heros

I am working with a group of quilters who make and give out quilts for our returning wounded soldiers, help is needed, so I am asking everyone who visits here to consider helping.

Below is a note from Sue, founder of American Hero Quilts, you can visit the website at
American Hero Quilts - Our Story

-----------------
This is from Sue Nebeker <http://www.american heroquilts. com> - "there
are so many wounded and so few quilts or tops coming in at the
moment. If you have the time to make a top, it would be greatly
loved and appreciated.

In addition I have sent out seven quilts in the last two weeks to
families who have young men who came back and killed themselves. I
have two military bases who have sent requests for quilts for
children and the numbers increase as I get them. I got a spread
sheet from Alaska of all the children and when I asked for
clarification of spelling on one of them she added three more names!

Even if you can just make a baby quilt, that would be fabulous."
------------------------------

Also;
If you can only make a block or two, feel free to and they will be added to other blocks and put into tops. If you can make blocks let me know at ...galynn92347@yahoo.com..... I will give you the address to send them to so they can be combine with other blocks into a top.

Perhaps you don't sew so you can't make blocks or tops, but you could donate money toward batting, Sue's address is on the website above. Consider sending just $10.00 to help with the batting which Sue is buying most of with her own money.

Please, please help if you can.

Thank you and may God Bless
Gail
