The Pineapple: a DAR national award-winner
Emma Gene Schroeder, two-term
chaplain of the La Villita chapter of the DAR, College Station, Texas, submitted her Pineapple
rug (23 x 45) to the National Society Daughters of the American
Revolution American Heritage Contest - Fiber Arts category, in April 2010.
Her entry won first in State and South Central
District, and third in National competition. The theme of the competition was
"America's Heritage Remembered."
"I decided to enter my Pineapple rug," she
says, "to give recognition for my chapter and because this is exactly what I believe
we need to do -- preserve our heritage through remembering our ancestors in every way we
can. It also follows our Texas State theme: 'Preserving the Past -- Our Gift to the
Future.'"
Many
congratulations to you, Emma Gene!
