Yesterday another group of lovely hookers joined me to put together their purses. No deer to entertain us this time but my 3 cats were definitely hanging around – in fact Lucky tried to climb into a bag where he spied a few balls of valdani thread – his passion!!! Even when the bag was firmly closed he was still tentatively trying to insert his paw into the tote to nab a ball – which he usually unwinds throughout the entire house after chewing on it! Thankfully, none were lost to his jaws or paws!
The purses were wonderful – Shelagh actually sewed the body of her bag out of a recycled suede skirt! And Bev’s purse (the one at the front) incorporated amazing stitching. All the fronds were done in a chain stitch.
Mary send me a picture of her beautiful finished bench pad…

Hope that bench pad is going into the theme exhibit at the Annual. What are those fish swimming in?? Why Waterways of course.
Thanks Loretta for your ongoing communications.
