September Already?

Not that we are sorry to see the summer go, but wow, it went fast. Time for all things autumn, school and yes - Christmas. This event coming up in September will be fun and a great way to get some of the gifts on your list taken care of. 


Make these fun “I've Been Good” baskets to encourage and reward! A great way to inspire incentive for positive behavior.



Beautiful “Chicken Scratch” handstitched Bookmarks. A simple, lovely way to remind someone you love them every time they pick up a book to read.



Blanket or Buttonhole Stitch around a piece of fleece for a pro finish on everyone's “blankie”.



Fun Four Corners Apron for Holidays or Everydays. The pattern comes in “me” and “mini me sizes”. Easy and fast, but you will learn a thing or two. You would need to bring your own fabric for this project. You will be notified ahead of time for the yardage requirement. A great gift for the tall and small cooks on your list.



What does your sign say? The next few pics are the different Sign Boards available for your projects. Paint the colors you want with the saying of your choice for you or someone you love enough to make one for. The money for these projects is due on the 1st of September, so don't delay.









There will also be quilts for the Humanitarian center set up for anyone wanting to come and do some service. There's nothing better than sitting around a quilt gabbing with a few friends…unless it's quilting and taking a break to munch on something once in a while.

There will of course be food. Chips, Dips, Crackers, Cheese, Veggies, etc. to satisfy even the healthiest (or not) munchies. There will be a sign up passed around for the fare, so get out your delicious dip recipes, your chips of choice, the veggies you love and the cheeses that make you smile. We will also have something a little more substantial since we are going through the dinner hour.

It's going to be a fun afternoon and evening and we will accomplish much. Please come and have fun with us - Mark your calendars today.
