Helen joined us for lunch today. Helen was a victim of the January floods and we were so pleased to have her back amongst the ranks. She is currently living in Brisbane but hopes to be able to visit us from time to time until they eventually move back to our region.
Helen was overcome with emotion when we presented her with some gifts. The club presented Helen with 2 bags stuffed with sewing goodies. Everything she needs to get her fired up to start back into sewing.
Clare from NSW very kindly donated a sewing machine. YES a sewing machine. Thank you very much Clare, and the picture below speaks a thousand words. Helen is so very appreciative.
Judy, from Michigan USA, sent some gifts to Helen via Dianne C. Thank you so much Judy. As you can tell by the photos Helen was so very excited to receive them. Judy made a needlework case with lots of little odds and ends in it especially for Helen. There were other lovely gifts included in the parcels too.
The flood quilting is still going on and some more quilts and quilt tops adorned the walls again at quilting today.
Our ladies are still working on flood quilts and we hope to start distributing some of those quilts in the coming weeks.
The weather is starting to turn cooler now, so our recipients are going to love receiving a quilt to snuggle up with.
