A fun Saturday. It was time again to meet with our sewing bee... our sewing group gets together once a month. We live all over but once we find out what day we are meeting, no drive seems to be too far to meet.
We gather to sew, knit, crochet ...share stories of what we are doing, how our families are, and eat. The person hosting makes the main dish and we bring the sides and desserts. I brought zucchini au gratin.
Then it is show and tell time! These ladies are at all levels and skills.
Susan showed some great place-mats. So much fun.
Mary has the top finished to her wedding ring.
Plus Mary showed off her hexie quilt. We watched her throughout the year sewing each one of those hexagons by hand. Luckily, she let me try my hand at a few so I could learn to sew them too.
Susan has a fun village of these cute little houses. She was adding a roof to this one.
Daisy was making pin cushion favors. These just look so handy.
Judy was our beautiful host and was knitting a sweater for her first great-grandbaby that is coming soon.
Susan was finishing up this fun Halloween wall hanging.
Alethea was learning to sew a jelly roll quilt.
Diane was cross stitching.
This is my jelly roll and machine ready to be transformed into place-mates.
It was a fun day of creativity and laughter.
I got home in time to nap and then head to the Polka Fest. Ymmm sausage and sauerkraut with wonderfully homemade noodles.
Then time to dance! Polka Time!
I snapped this picture of this very handsome young man.
There weren't as many people there as last year since the Cajun Boil was going on across the street at the American Legion. (of course, we stopped over there too! ) Small towns know how to have a good time.
Tomorrow is mass and resting.
Hope you are doing well where you are.
peace, health and happiness!
