Charity Crafters Meeting Once Again!


Such a happy Friday morning! Our first "meet" since this pandemic started. Well, actually, Louise and I haven't shared a Friday morning since our last one back on 2/21/20. Then she left on a cruise, and then the cruise was messed up as they tried to dodge the pandemic bullet, and I'm so happy she did, but it was a long time before we could do this again. Let's see - she was here 2/21, then our Park closed our Clubhouse on 3/16.

It re-opened a week ago but I didn't know it so yesterday was our first re-meet - she brought me all the things she worked on, and I let her know what I had finished, and we caught up and were VERY glad to be doing it again. Along the way, our two main "invisible" members were working as well - the one who is on dialysis is still making loom-knitted hats and the one near our Clubhouse is bringing crocheted scarves every week or 10 days - she's brought almost 4 dozen since the pandemic hit.

So, at the moment, to begin to catch us up on this blog, the photo here is what I finished between 2/21 and yesterday: 6 hats and 5 lapghans for the VA...

I'll be sharing Louise's stash in a day or so after I count and take pix of hers. She did a lot more than I did - wait until you see. And then I'll do the scarves another day.

Later this week I'll be packing as much as I can for the closet stash before our hot weather hits the back part of the house again. This week we are blessed with under-triple digits. For June in Vegas, that is a treat -

I also need to update everyone on my Christmas Tote activities - although I'm thinking of just calling it my "gift stash" because I've already removed 2 or 3 things for sudden impulse giving.
Rolling along...
