We had a huge fundraiser in the fall at church.  I had lots available and we did well!  But then, we were raising money to help fund a second Pastor!  So people were generous!

but, I am contributing to another one in a couple weeks.  Small things and food!

but, Patti, have you seen the kitchen towels with a hot pad sewn on the top?  I am going to make some of these next time!


 

can you see how they left the towel folded…centered the hot pad on top, sewed across the center.  Then sewed a button on so it could hand on oven handle!

I thought so!  Hot pad available, and the kitchen towel too for handling hot dishes!

Yes, someone made some of those for our booth.  My oven handle is solid, so won't work for me!!  We sold a few, but sold more oven mitts.  We filled some of the oven mitts with utensils, made a nice ready made gift.

we are ready to push the GO button

That is so exciting.  I hope all goes well with the building.  I know you will be excited to have a room design as your sewing space.  Have you sold you Cali house yet?

,I just finished 3 long days of work.  

I know that must have been tiring.  I stopped by the sidewalk sale in Mesa.  They were busy but not as crazy as pre-covid.  I was there on day 2 so they could have been busier day 1.  

We got home from our road trip on the 8th and have been busy ever since we got home with dr appts, watching kids and dogs and whatever else came along.  I finally got in my sewing room Saturday.  I made binding for 2 small quilts and one larger one.  Sewed the binding to one side of the 2 small ones.  Hope to get back in there today.  The rest of the week is pretty scheduled.

Wow!  You have been crazy busy too.  Hope when all is done that the guild made some money for their next projects.  Those who don't quilt have no idea what goes in to them in $$$ and time.

How many lambs have you had and how many more are to come.  What are your plans for the lambs?
