February 2013 Sew Day

Just wanted to thank Karen for hosting another successful sew day for the Crafty Weasels. With all that was going on in your home, we couldn’t even tell that Chuck had been doing some demolition. We LOVE playing with your fuzzies, and giving them all scrunchies. Enjoyed meeting Morgan’s two kids — even getting their melatonin implants, didn’t stop them from being sociable–too cute!. Meliah made some wonderful Chicken Chili — that I hope she will make again. Morgan made some wonderful jalapenos poppers, and Amereta brought some delicious Dreamcicle cupcakes.

Karen sent me home with some cute fleece to cut for next time. Meliah just dropped off some more cute material (jungle animals) — Thank you both for your donations to the Crafty Weasels.

Next sew day will be March 16 at Dyna’s. Hope to see everyone there!

September 2012 Sew Day

Poor Margaret battled this beast!!!

I’m sad to say that we forget to get a picture, but will try to remember next time. But the pic above is called “The Trials & Tribulation of Sew Day” & this day was quite a trial for many of us but as always, we rose above & were successful. Just like all those beautiful ferts do in these wonderful shelters we ship to. Which CW’s feel so honored to do so.

because I didn’t have to get things organized and also make the main dish!!

Here is our count:

4 -FN sets

3 – Reg Sets

We didn’t get a chance to get group pics — totally slipped our minds.
Amereta did take a couple impromptu pics, which I’ll forward– not the same as
a group pic, but you can see the newly painted room.

Thanks again, everyone for coming and continuing to make the Crafty Weasel
bedding.
