Sewing Circle in Delaware


~ Polly's Posting ~

Today was our monthly sewing circle here in Delaware!
Our group was rather small but our hearts were warmed as our hands were kept busy!
Connie and Edie knotting a comfort top.

This quilt top is getting smaller and smaller!


I love seeing the younger ones getting pointers from the older ones.  Here Darlene is helping her niece.


 Show~and~Tell 
Kristen showed some cute little stocking caps she has been making at home.


Queena K. showed some pillow cases she is making for Christmas gifts!


I showed this little quilt that I added the border to a couple weeks ago.  We bought the top for less then $20 at MCC Resource Center and all it needed was a border and now we'll have a nice little top to quilt.  Mark loves the colors and my mind is now churning for a quilt for him.


Allison showed these little dresses she is making for her dolly.


I'm amazed at how the young ones love to sew!  Here they are playing with some of the scraps that were left over from a project.


Happy sewing till next time!
Love, Polly

How wonderful and blessed you all are to have young ladies to start sewing... All I have is boys but, my grandson wants to learn how to sew, and I will be teaching him... Keep up the wonderful work and I love all the show and tell's...
