Needlecrafts for Charity - Sept. 12, 2012

It was so exciting to begin the 2012/2013 Needlecrafts for Charity last Wednesday.  We had a total of 7 members (3 new) that attended.  It was decided that we would begin again on knitting chemo caps for kids at our local military hospital.  I look forward to working with all these enthusiastic students and helping to make a difference in the lives of others'.  Follow us as we tackle new projects always with a focus on sustainability. 

My husband and I have been quite busy with a "small" remodeling project, or so we thought.  We forgot that home projects take twice as much time and cost twice as much as originally planned.  The first part of September we decided to replace our tub surround.  It seemed like a 4 day project.....NOT!  At the end of day 17, we called it finished.  Now that the work is over, we're very happy with the results.  Especially since it's tiled, the surround should last for many years. 

I recently sewed some items for a baby shower gift.  It's so much fun to sew for little ones!  I'd love to share the project and pictures, but I want it to be a surprise.  The shower is Sept. 30, so I'll post pictures after that.

More later.
