Her DH (Dear Husband) works for TransAlta and they sponsored our float providing a truck/driver and entry fee.
The entry fee was waived by the parade committee so we were able to buy fabric (yes what a chore for a quilter isn't it) for red fleece skirts and white fleece scarves. We are all tickled pink to have been given First prize and a free entry into next year's parade.

With the win we led the parade through downtown Cochrane. We had to go past Addie's Creative Fabrics, our lqs (local quilt shop), and not one of us got out to shop!
