Twyla, I wanted to thank you personally for my beautiful card and cherries! I absolutely love them! You are such a sweet person. Oh does this party ever sound fun! I'll have to think on it awhile! I am nervous about joining, but it sure would be fun! Elizabeth
Hard to believe it has been 70 years since it was released! What a fun idea for a Gala. Love the Oz themed birthday banner you have made.
This looks like it will be spectacular and on the 70th
anniversary.
Very exciting for one of the best movies of all time.
I would love to do this also.
This one is perfect for me! I live with a Dorothy NUT, she thinks she is Dorothy, and we listen to the CD daily.
I'd love to join in this one.

I would like to join the party for The Wizard of Oz. I have been following the yellow brick road since October, having made 9 quilts. My series of 4 collections can be seen on Quilting Treasures website:
www.quiltingtreasures.com
click on Wizard of Oz news.
I have created a blog showing my quilts:

Twyla and Lindsey, thank you for the nice comment on my OSU quilt. I only piece the tops, all my quilts are machine quilted. Easier on my hands but also I can be more carefree for them to be used on the floor for naps or taken to ballgames. Thanks again for appreciating my work.
Hello Ladies...
Your OZ Party sounds just wonderful, and I'm hoping it's not too late for my name to be added to the list...
I'd really like to join in on all of the Fun!
See you Over the Rainbow...
