The Boone County Senior Services Needlepoint group has been very busy with a special project for Witham Pediatrics. Fifteen very talented ladies from the group each stitched sections of the large needlepoint picture that depicts the nursery rhyme “There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe”. The finished piece with all its fine details and intricacies shows their passion for stitching and took several years to complete. It was actually started before COVID so that caused the project to be delayed. This spectacular piece of art is displayed in the Witham Pediatrics office waiting room. Witham patients, staff and visitors will be able to enjoy it for years. Thank you to the following ladies for sharing their talents: Celeste Berry, Linda Burkhart, Betty Carr, Sonya Carr, Charlotte Frandsen, Jane Hammock, Debbie Harmon, Patty Hughes, Jeanne James, MaryAnne Koehler, Diana Miller, Audrey Nordstrom, Becky Ohman, Arlene Quinn, Marlena Walton.
