In contrast to the Meeker team, the AMS Team A worked with the Quilting Connection to have some embroidery done on their mats. In addition to a monatary donation to the Maple Valley team in Mapleton we asked if we could make and donate pin mats to them. They accepted and we will present them to the team on Wednesday. We are excited that Mapleton is able to compete at Globals while they are recovering from the April tornado. Our thanks to Justin's mom for coordinating and sewing the mats for both AMS Team A and Maple Valley-Anthon-Otho team and to the Ames Quilting Connection for their contribution!
Here's a peak of the mats connecting the Ames Little Cyclones and the Maple Valley team.
Notice the volcano pins on the lower left -- that is our state pin that we will trade for other states and countries. So far today, we have ran into Red Rock, TX, a group from Indiana, Mexico, New Hampshire and New York -- and that was just at check-in.
Cool pin mats! Good luck this week!
