We were a smaller group today, only 12 in attendance. The main news was about Suzzette. When Diane and Ernestine tried to visit her last week, they discovered she was no longer in The Club. After a little research, I was able to find a telephone number for her son and left a message. He called me back during the meeting. She was getting worse so The Club sent her back to The Villages Hospital. From there she was sent to Shands in Gainesville. She has had a couple of surgeries, and is now in good hands. Her son has arranged for home nurse care for her when she is released from the hospital. He will let me know when she is home.
Ceal Pedersen some of the stuffed toys she painted the faces on.
Carolyn Grasso showed some toys she made.
Diane Saculla found some pretty pink fabric in our donations that didn’t seem appropriate for our other projects, so she made 2 pillows, one for Ceal and the other for Ernestine.
Louise finished some blocks for our Puzzle quilt project, and made some pillow cases.
Lenora Holze showed her first dinosaur.
Ellen Hein handed in 5 baby quilt tops.
I showed the quilt I made for Allamanda’s 2025 challenge, to
make a quilt representing my birth month flower. My flowers are Larkspurs (front) and water lilies
(backing).
Since I decided to keep this quilt, I had to hand in a substitute for donation. I am including a photo of the substitute quilt.
*******************
Today Mic and I brought some pieces of fabric to choose from
in making more toys. I also brought the
fiber fill.
I also brought the kits for the green and white puzzle quilt, the pre-printed doll fabric, and the center blocks for hospice quilts.
Next week we will have a week off,
since the building will be closed for quarterly cleaning. I hope to see you back on March 5th.
Lois
