Nimblefingers is a needlework group which serves as a gathering place for those interested in sharing their knowledge of and excitement for the needle arts. It strives to act as a center of lifelong learning, to provide information and education about the needle arts, and to present the opportunity to examine the various styles and types of needlework. Most importantly, it strives to give its members the opportunity to socialize and to share their interests.

Today we had a small group---only 12 ladies, but it was a special day because we were visited by Karine Abalyan from the Spotlight who is writing a feature article on the Nimblefingers! We're going to be famous! (at least locally). It's nice to be recognized as the friendly, creative group that we are so thank you Karine! Daryl and I each brought in a prayer quilt ready to be tied. However, the table was in use by Linda C. who had 4 quilts to sandwich and Daryl with 1 quilt to sandwich. There was lots of pinning going on today! Back at the table, Alberta and Nancy were working on their card embroidery, Marguerite, Agnes and Pat with their hand-piecing, Betty with her knitting, Ethel with her embroidery, and Marie decided to take a day off and just came to visit. Agnes brought in some strawberry bread that was delicious! And Lew Schedlbauer brought in some more scrap batting for future prayer quilts. Thanks again Lew--you're a good friend! I am trying to clean out our little closet so had put out several boxes of fabric and lots of magazines hoping it would find a home. This will have to be an ongoing project so look for more stuff at our next meeting!
