Sisters

|ˈsistər| This word transcends the typical definiton...."a woman or girl in relation to other daughters and sons of her parents." It is the obvious but oh so much more....

I would like to introduce Essie Tolbert (pictured right) and Ozell Preston (pictured left). These women are strong. They protect each other and they will be together forever. Last year Essie was in the quilt show. We had a hard time reaching Ozell. By luck and her sister's communication, Ozell joined us for the show. They are wonderful quilters. We and the admirers from past shows were so glad that they were there. It was like a reunion, a homecoming. If you know Tom Westmoreland he will be glad to "bend your ear" and give a special "shout out" to his friends...

We are honored to show the quilts of Essie Tolbert and Ozell Preston this year.
