84-Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 27,1985 Kitty Zaekei (Continued from Page B 2) has sold a few over the years. "Six months is not unreasonable to make a quilt, but with two little girls, it may take me a couple months longer,” she says. Kitty has also taught quilting during the winter in Lebanon and also in the Butler area in the summer. While at the fair, she will be demonstrating quiltmaking in the free program tent. She has made a total of 42 full sized quilts since she began the craft. She has also won fair prizes with baby quilts, pieces, wall hangings, toys and clothes she has sewn. Kitty says she would eventually like to become a judge, and would especially enjoy judging needlework. For several years she and her sister, Amy, have been judges’ helpers in the home economics department. "Someday I might make a quilt out of all my ribbons,” smiles Kitty. Showing her handiwork and products she’s made is very im portant to her. She has missed only two fairs since her 4-H years one while she was vacationing in Europe and the other when her sister Diana was bom. Kitty says the oddest thing she ever entered in a fair was a jar of sunflower seeds, which won her a blue ribbon. “It’s the spirit of the competition and remember, in some cases it doesn’t cost anything to enter,” she said. “The motivation to better yourself and to be rewarded .for something that ’s done basically everyday.” SUNDAY, AUGUST 4th: 4* • 4-H Horse & Pony Show - 9 a.m. • Ham Bar-B-Q - 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m $4.00 • Judge Rabbits & Cavies-1:30p.m • Enter Poultry - 6:00 p.m. • Evening Vespers & Music by CENTURIONS (bring lawn chairs) 7:00 p.m. MONDAY, AUGUST sth \mS • Judge Swine-8:30 a.m. Ifjl • Judge Dairy Goats - ” 3:30 p.m. • County Tractor & 4x4 Truck Pull - 7 00 p.m. $2.50 • Washington Band - 7 p.m to 9 -30 p.m. SAULT STE.
