Mask Maker, Mask Maker, Make Me a Mask...

What started as a few masks for Matthew, our oldest son, who was finishing his Master's Degree in Economics at the Friedrich-Schiller University in Jena, Germany, has become a labor of love and provided purpose.
When our three boys were younger I enjoyed making their Halloween costumes, other clothes or projects, and searched for the perfect fabrics. I also enjoy making quilts, so I have a two-tote fabric collection.

Cheese Days 2020 Moves to 2021

The Green County Cheese Days Board of Directors has announced that the festival will not take place in 2020. This is due to consideration for the health and wellness of festival attendees, volunteers and the greater Green County community during the current COVID-19 pandemic.
This disappointing announcement is balanced with a bit of good news. The festival is deviating from the tradition of “third weekend in September in even-numbered years” to bring you “Cheese Days 2020 in 2021.” Mark your calendars for the next Cheese Days on September 17-19, 2021.
