We had a nice me Saturday with only 7 girls, but we sewed and played
bingo and cha ed and won lots of prizes. It was a fun day for those who
missed it. But we understand, the show was kinda important!
Next month for the April mee ng Rose May is going to teach us how to
make this gadget/makeup bag. It is really cute and easy and a chance to
use up some fat quarters and small pieces of favorite fabric. Would be
great for a Mother's day gi ! Instruc ons are a ached so you can
get your materials together and
plan.
Looking ahead, the May mee ng is
going to be our annual auc on,
followed by our world famous
luncheon in June; and July and August will be create and share.
