KEHA Census Quilt at the Kentucky State Fair – The 2020 Census Quilt created by KEHA in the fall of 2019 will have a featured display at the upcoming Kentucky State Fair. The quilt will be in the South Wing Lobby in a special display with the 2021 grand champion quilts. The booklet providing details about the quilt will be available for fair visitors to review at the nearby State Fair Information Desk. Please share with your members and encourage those attending the State Fair to view the quilt in this special display.

A Note from Karen Hill, KEHA President

I just want to thank every KEHA member who had a part in making the NVON Conference such a great success.  Sharon Wood did a fabulous job of planning the meeting, but we could not have done the job without our KEHA members.  Whether you made favors or centerpieces, introduced speakers, helped with tours or anything else you each played an important role.  For those of you who came to the conference thank you because whenever we needed help on anything you pitched in whether it was your assigned duty or not.  We got great evaluations from the conference and many words of appreciation from the attendees.  We make a great team, and I am so proud to be a member of KEHA. Photos from the conference are available on the NVON website at https://www.nvon.org/conference-photos/.
