Ohio quilter Pennell wins big at state fair with many award quilts
88 year old Rita Pennell of White Hall lives for quilting though she calls it a hobby. She dedicates up to eight hours daily, often multitasking while sewing. Her award winning quilts span decades, including a 2017 Best of Show and a piece once hung in Governor Voinovich’s mansion. Pennell credits family, guilds, and continuous learning for her success.
