December 2011 Sew Day

We had another successful sew day this past weekend.  To me, every month that we continue to get together and sew bedding is a successful day.  It is always difficult to during the holiday season to continue our traditions of never missing a month to sew … and this month we are several people that had to work, and several that came who were under the weather…. but they were troupers and showed up, and stayed the full course of the day.
Attendees:
Karen
Chuck  (made main dish of Lasagna)
Sue
Florence
Meliah
Mary Ann
Dyna
Bedding:
3 FN Sets
1 FN Hammie
3 Regular Sets
4 Sleep Sacks
8 Hammies
Saturday, BJ came by our place and dropped off 16 FireCracker Toys before I got back home from Sew Day — YEAH!!!
Thank you all for being so very dedicated and making the day fun filled and successful.
Lots of hugs,
Florence

August 2011 Sew Day

Thanks Karen and Chuck for opening your house to us for sew day. Chuck did a great job with the potato salad, and hamburgers on the grill. Great good was brought by everyone to round out a go=d meal and desserts. First time we didn’t have anything chocolate, and it wasn’t really missed — well, we can make up next time! :-)

We have several of our regulars missing (Sue, MaryAnn, Jewelz) but hopefully they will all be able to attend next month.

Total:
6 FN Sets

We have a lot of stuff that had one piece of the set completed, but waiting for the other piece, so next time we will have some done quickly. People were pinning and making ties like crazy, so that is a lot of things just waiting for the next step. I know we will really be kicking it next month too.

Thanks everyone for your contribution of time and energy to make this happen (Meliah, and BJ — thanks for the cute monkey material that will be cut soon, and added to the sets to sew), Good sew day, lots of laughs and bedding accomplished!!

Hugs,
Florence
