The story of how the Thimble Creek Quilters got their name.
For
over 20 years, we did not have a name for the group. We thought "the
Most Supreme, High Quilters". That was it. Or the "Wednesday Girls". I didn’t like girl, sounded like a call kind of thing.
So we
decided we needed a name.
We liked “Thimble
Creek Quilters”. But, I mean, shouldn’t there
be a Thimble Creek if you are going to call yourselves that?
So we went
up to Wallsburg and found a creek behind a pond that I have up there and threw
in all our thimbles and dubbed it Thimble Creek and then we called ourselves
Thimble Creek Quilters.
It took
about 20 years to find a name so we are fairly young.
