Hi Fellow Stitchers,
I hope everyone is finding this wonderful weather conducive to stitching all of your masterpieces and providing lots of inspiration for your creative ideas. Can’t beat the weather in San Diego!
I want to thank all of the members participants in last month’s Chapter Stash Sale. There were so many wonderful things to peruse it was fabulous. Thank you all for donating to the chapter. And thank you to all who purchased items. We certainly couldn’t have done it without everyone’s generous donations and purchases. I don’t have the figures yet on the final profit for the chapter yet, but hope to have it by the meeting so you can all give yourselves a pat on the back for such a great job. Thank you!
Angelina H. is spearheading a mini outreach program to provide Christmas or Holiday ornaments for the families that lost their homes in the recent fires.
We are hoping to be able to donate at least 63 stitched ornaments. If we could do a few more just in case there are more, that would be fantastic! The ornaments need to be completed and collected by the October meeting. We can do it!
As everyone knows, it’s Fair Time! I would like to congratulate the winner this year for the Chapter Donation of a year’s free membership for 2015…..Drumroll please…..Gini M.! I am looking forward to seeing her piece as well as all the other pieces entered this year. I hope everyone gets a chance to get to the Fair to see them in person also. Congratulations again Gini. You deserve it!
Well, my needle and thread are calling so I must go for now. In the meantime, may all your stitches be happy ones with no reverse stitches.
Jean
