Sew Many Friends offers materials, classes for needleworkers
[NOV.
2, 2000]
"A
hobby that took over my life" is the way Ivy Koritz describes quilting. And
she admits to being a "fabriholic." So it seems only natural to find
her behind the counter at "Sew Many Friends," the quilt and sewing
shop at 127 S. Kickapoo. The new store, which belongs to Ivy and her husband,
Dick, of Clinton and Sue and Butch Bidwell of Lincoln, carries all sorts of
quilting supplies, as well as 500 to 600 bolts of fine-quality fabrics.
"But we’d like to have more," Ivy says. "We fabriholics want a
bolt of everything on the market."

With
much of the exterior completed, work continues on the inside of the
current Logan County Habitat for Humanity construction site. Most
work takes place on Mondays and Saturdays. Anyone with a desire to

Mayfield interviews Andy King
Former

Part

[NOV.

The
last few weeks the LDN has been taking an up-close-and-personal look at former
Railer athletes that are now engaged in collegiate athletic warfare. One such
performer is former Railer lineman Andy King. Andy now occupies the left tackle
position for the Illinois State Redbirds. After a slow start, the Redbirds have
won three in a row and still plan to make some noise in their final three games
of the year. Andy credits coach Renner and his staff in Lincoln for creating a
don’t-quit, never-say-die attitude that forged itself into an expectancy of
