THE ELORA FESTIVAL HAS BEEN LAUNCHED!

Dear Music Lover,
The quilt is finished, and now hanging in the office of the Elora Festival. We had a wonderful turnout last Friday for the launch and people were just buzzing around the quilt! In fact, we picked up four more sponsorships that evening.

Kathy has done a sterling job of sewing on all the labels on the back, and the quilting has turned out beautifully. So - there's still a chance to become part of this project! Call (519) 846 0331 if you'd like to sponsor a square. Just $50, you'll get a tax receipt, and your name will be on the back in perpetuity!

Thanks to Bill Longshaw for this photo of me with the whole quilt, and to Quentin Johnson for the photo of Kathy and me!


Thanks for all the help, Kathy!


Take care all, and enjoy your music,
Susan

SAD NEWS

Dear Music Lover,
It is with great sadness that I have to report the death of Thelma May last week. Thelma sponsored a square in the quilt in memory of our dear friend Robert Evans, and the one Kathy and I made for her was posted on May 30, last year. Her chosen song was Fare Thee Well, Love, by the Rankin family. Farewell, friend, RIP. If I had only known how appropriate this would be, so soon.

Here's a look at her square again.
Live every day as if it may be your last, friends, and listen to your favourite music.
Susan
