11 ladies attended today. Pat H. was our knitter today. She was making a hat on her little knitting machine. Agnes sewed the binding on an angel wall hanging. Winnie was copying a purchased Christmas wall hanging--quilted with yo-yos. She wants to make a few to sell at the church bazaar. Rosemary was working on her cross-stitch wall hanging. Marie was piecing the border of a quilt. Cathy Y. brought in a baby quilt panel she had purchased. We laid it out and made the quilt sandwich and she began quilting it. Kristin got out a sewing machine and sewed the borders on her antique grandmother's flower garden quilt. Deb was painstakingly sewing her flowers together on her antique grandmother's flower garden quilt. Marguerite pulled out the raffle quilt to add some more quilting stitches to. And I mingled. We had a small group today. I know Kathy M. is getting ready for her granddaughter's wedding but I don't know where everyone else was. I had some sad news this week. Our former member Anne Bave is doing very poorly. We shared some memories about Anne.
