Club Notes - March 27, 2024

It was great to be back with my sewing friends this afternoon.  I was starting to loose track of what day it was, without places to go.  I am happy to be able to drive again so I can get to all my weekly activities.

We had 15 ladies at this afternoon’s meeting.  There were lots of stuffed toys being made. Courtesy of Mic, we had 2 bins of fabric to choose from. Plus, a lady dropped off a bag of heavier fabric that we can use for walker bags or dog beds.

Please send prayers for Diane Placek and her family.   Her son has been in the hospital for the past 5 weeks and is in kidney failure. He is in the process of being moved to a long term care facility.

 

Show and Tell:

B.J. Herter showed a duck toy.

Carolyn Grasso made some 9-patch blocks 

and some stuffed animals waiting for stuffing.

Pat Pipa made a bunch of toys

and showed a yard flag she made.

Bev Minnerly made 3 walker bags

 and 2 cats.

Ceal Pedersen  brought back a bag full of stuffed animals that she painted the faces on.

Audrey Phillips showed a little bear, 

a yard flag, and a lot of Easter items.

At the Busy Hands/Happy Hearts sale a few weeks ago, Mic put out all the items left over from our sales last October.  They sold $140 worth of items.  That has been added to our charity fund.  Mic said that items under $5 went best.  We should think about what we can make that we could sell at next October’s craft sale, for no more than $10.

 Please continue working on toys, 9-patch blocks, and anything else that will make good use of all the lovely fabric that has been donated to us.   If you need anything specific, let me know.

See you next week.
