Club Notes - Oct 9, 2019

It was another busy afternoon at El Santiago. We welcomed back another of our snowbirds, Brenda Severa. I did a quick explanation of how to make a loyalty card holder.  The basic instructions are attached to my email.  I gave those in attendance a couple of ideas on variations.

There are 2 events coming up to benefit charity work.

Busy Hands, Happy Hearts is running a sale at Coconut Grove on Monday from noon to 2:30 PM

Audrey Philips told us about the Girl Scout Alumnae fundraiser to collect pajamas for the 6,000+ needy children in the tri-county area.  There are bins at all the rec centers and a fundraiser at Mulberry on Nov 13th.  The flyer is attached to my email.

Show and Tell:

Carol Lamb showed some bibs, 


a tag blanket

and a lamb book for her new grandchild 

and a towel apron for the parents to use when bathing the baby.

Audrey Philips showed a quilt that is a work in progress.

Pat Pipa showed an apron and a clothes saver for Busy Hands,










 a zipper bag and a quilt top for our charities.

Charlotte Cecilio made 2 more red, white and blue dryer sheet sets.

Deb Chapman and Eileen DiSanto finished their candy zipper bags.

Marti Rhyne made a couple of towel scarfs.

After today's demo everyone got busy as always and had lots of fun.
Next week we will be making stuffed toys again.  I will bring some of our regular patterns and Ellen Hein will show us a new easy one.  I will bring stuffing and fabric to choose from.

See you next week.
