I was not at the last meeting because I was keeping my grandson at my house while his parents had a new sibling born at home. Ursula Emeline was born with no problems and we are all thrilled...not so much her big brother. There is an adjustment time so we know he will get through it.
So it looks like you had a great time at the meeting. Della gave me the pictures and the commentary to go with so here goes... No morning project pictures but I will be sure to include some from this Octobers meeting.
Barb reported that we have accomplished our goal with the weighted blankets. We made 14 for the Oak Park School and 20 more for the other OT's in the TBA system. Great job one and all.
There is a home dedication for 2 Habitat for Humanity on November 30th. These are two more of the depot homes in Traverse City. We passed around the basket for a good will offering and come up with $195... this will help us to buy supplies we need for the charity quilts.
The October meeting will be to make the quilts of valor out of the patriotic fabric we contributed at the end of last year. The busy summer group made them into jelly rolls and we will be making them into unique quilts. If you want to do your own you need 24 to 30 salvage to salvage 2 1/2 " strips. this will make a 30" wide quilt and then you can add borders.
Donna has been busy with her skills showing in the beautiful quilt above and the small quilt with the fall theme below.
