July 2025 Sew Day Recap
Wow, maybe you thought numbers might be low as the weather outside was just beautiful. You know what? We should never underestimate how important these two days are for our quilting faithful. So great to see so many of you! Hoping this update found you enjoying this beautiful Mother's Day. Whether with your mom or with your kids or even your fur babies, it's been a beautiful day. And for those of you struggling for any reason, here's a prayer that the beautiful sunshine at least put a smile on your face.
Great turnout this month. We welcomed a few snowbirds back and there were a few new faces. We even had some special guests.
Friday: snow, sleet, rain, wind.......brrrrrrrr! We still had a huge group that came to Hope Waukee for sorting, sewing and congregating!
The weather wanted to put us on all edge this weekend, but finally settled down to a small flurry and that was it! So a nice weekend of fellowship and sewing managed to continue!
The devotional was a good reminder in the way of an allegory of using small scraps of fabric to make a large beautiful quilt. God takes all the small parts of our lives, good and bad, and makes a beautiful life out of it in the end, if we could only think of it this way. He has it planned out, and He knows the outcome.
It was so good to be able to meet this first month of a brand new year! December threw a mini blizzard at us, so the meeting was canceled on Saturday. Some members did get in some sewing on Friday, before the weather turned bad.
