World Relief

Last night, I went to World Relief Projects at church. I enjoy going, it is sometimes hard for me to leave after supper. It is always such a blessing to g0 and once I am there, I'm sure thankful that I did.
Enjoy some of the pictures from my outing!! Knotting comforter!!Sometimes it pays to be small.

We made pillowcases for kits being sent---OK I don't know where they are going--but we made pillowcases!!
Many hands to get the work done!!!
I think if you count we had 8 ladies sewing last night!

There are even jobs for those that don't want to sew!
Of course it wouldn't be an Apostolic event if we didn't have a snack!!


A chance to sit down with ladies and chat about what's new!


We accomplished a lot last night. We completed 42 pillowcase, 2 flannel blankets and knotted 3 comforters! Also we replaced several sewing machine needles, made many parts for pillowcases and how can you count the fun and fellowship???
It was a great time with old friends and a chance to get know a few ladies better!! Thanks for a great time girls!!!

I've noticed that quilting and sewing is a struggling thing at the big M. A "few" of us young girls are still trying to learn. I wonder how we can spark new interest in this lost art?

I agree with Tara! It IS becoming a lost art.

Julie, this looks like so much fun!! What a great group of people too! Keep up the great work!

Oh, and to reply back to your comment on my blog: I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT MAISIE!! I probably shouldn't have asked everyone's opinions - it confused me:). Still up in the air ;)

It sounds like a great ministry and is good that you went out and took some time for yourself. There are going to be some really blessed people.

Oh evening sewing-it's been too long. I always enjoyed coming and will perhaps have to come again soon! Jane
