Sew Many Friends offers materials, classes for needleworkers
[NOV.
3, 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."

College begins its swimming season Friday against Western Illinois
University. Coach Dan Hemenway, beginning his 10th

Division II schools, which will be tough, but it will make us a
better team at the end of the season."

SPIRITUAL

Weekend
event for young students
will feature service projects
[NOV.
3, 2000] This
weekend (Friday, Nov. 3, and Saturday, Nov. 4), Lincoln Christian
College and Seminary will host 500 junior high students and their
adult sponsors in a special weekend of worship and service called
"Junior High Experience." This event is designed to
challenge young students to experience the power of God in all
facets of their lives. One of the main ways in which this is
to be accomplished is through service projects, which will take
place all day Saturday at various sites throughout central
Illinois. About 200 of the participants will take part in a
citywide food drive for the Lincoln Logan Food Pantry, with the goal
of filling the new addition of the facility with food just in time
for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
