May 2019 Work Day Recap

Rain, rain, go away.  May has given its share of water this month, good for the flowers but not so good for people finding it in their basements!  It was a good excuse to stay inside and sew this weekend.  We had a great turnout at Hope Quilters.  We missed some regulars and saw a few new faces.  Some stayed most of the two days and others popped in for a few hours.  Others stopped just to pick up some work to do at home.  Maybe you've thought about helping out in this quilt ministry but feel you don't have a whole "weekend" to donate your time, as you can see you can pop in and out with the time that you feel you can give!  It's always great to see you, even if it's just to stop and say hello!

We turned in around twenty quilts to Missions.  This includes nine that were given by member Rachel's daughter.  If you learn of friends or family that have quilts looking for good homes, our Mission partners at Hope are always a good option and we'll be glad to help you get them to a place that needs them.  We also prepared all the quilts for auction with plans for transport to Riverside and Okoboji. Thanks so much to Cheryl and Joyce for their work on this project!  There were nine quilts and several small items that will go in Riverside's Silent Auction.  

Thanks for stopping by the blog, and on with the PHOTOS!
