We gathered for our May Sunday Stitchers meeting on Sunday. Mothers Day was our theme. The morning tea girls did a beautiful job and we all bought a shared plate for lunch.
Our birthday girl was Tatyana....that cake was pretty terrific!
Sandi gave us a sweet gift.....almost too pretty to unwrap.
But I forced myself lol! A gorgeous notebook.....
May was also our meeting for gathering our supplies together for our toiletry bags we had made for a women's shelter for the homeless.
Packing and filling the bags.....
The completed bags....
My bag....we also bought along undies and socks to pop in side.
Show and Tell for our UFO CHALLENGE No. 5
Finally my Ruth's quilt is together!
Helen's lovely bucket and pin cushions.
Susan's baby quilt and Alison's quilt for her hubby.
Inca's very cute and lovely little pouch....it was like a tapestry stitching on the front.
Once again a very enjoyable day and one that we can hopefully cheer others with.
Thanks girls!
Our UFO CHALLENGE No is
