Cats & Bears, Oh My!

Wow, the past few weeks have flown by!  I took a trip to Portland, Oregon, and started spring quarter back at Evergreen.  My hand-sewing class at UPS (University of Puget Sound) finished our two month project of sewing cats and bears for Phoenix Housing in Tacoma.  Phoenix Housing assists the homeless population in Tacoma.  Our animals will find new homes with loving children :) 
Our newest project is making cat mats for the Humane Society.  This project involves machine sewing, so some of the young ladies will use a sewing machine for the first time.  It's fun for me to see the creativity that emerges with each new project.  New fun pictures coming soon!
