Another Get Together

Another Get Together

Hi Everyone!

Just thought I would pop in and say hello again. My goodness can you believe it is September 8 already,just one question,what happened to July?

The main reason for this posting is to find out when you all want to get together again? And in what format,such as a day, a lunch again,or a weekend? We need to get together on this so we can get it planned. Someone mentioned a weekend sewing marathon?

We also Really need to get organized on a charity,we cannot wait any longer,and will have to make a decision about it at the next meeting. I say lets go for the womens shelters in the areas, I am sure they can use anything we would give them,such as blankets,bags of things ,but we have to decide.

It would be nice, I saw someone mention about putting together some bags of toiletries for them and that would be wonderful. ME on the bag to make it more personal for them. Lets hear some ideas on that!? There are many things I know they need,so  what ever we can do I am sure would be appreciated.

So, Let me hear some ideas on the get together so we can get it planned!!! Looking forward to it! I love seeing all of your smiling faces again!  Big Smile

We really need to have something planned and in the worked by the end of the month so we can set it up!

 

Thanks

Judy Big Smile

This is getting to be a busy time of year, so, another lunch would be best for me.   Even that's going to be tough for me with work.  I work most every Saturday :(  but if I know far enough in advance and can probably work it out.

I think a weekend sounds great but maybe should be planned for after the holidays??????  What do y'all think?

I think another long long lunch or an all day affair.  To do a weekend this time of year and the economy the way it is would be hard for some people.

If we do an all day affair then most people could pop in when their schedules permit.

Looking forward to what the other think.

Central Florida embroideriers - I have a question for you.  Does anyone have or know where I can get the logo for the University of Central Florida?  

Thanks, Glenda

I have been sewing for years. I went to work for Chrysler in Michigan back in the early 70s making car seats,then when that job ended after several years of not sewing for a living, I ended up sewing for Steelcase in Michigan. I have also been a Hairdresser and worked as a grocery clerk as well. I lived a great life and have done many things for work. I was a single Mom so I truly know what hard work is.Left Steelcase in 2001 due to illness and then we moved to Florida in 2005 due to my health,we love it here ,but the summers are sort of hot. It is great in December though! I have my own little room where I have my serger,sewing machine and embroidery machine set up. I love having my own space but I wish it was larger,as I have a tendancy to buy a lot of fabric.I have two grown children and two almost grown grand kids. One is 17 and the other 14.(wow I feel old now) I have a wonderful husband of five years, that supports whatever I do. which is wonderful! I love doing my embroidery and making things for everyone I love. I try to make most of my gifts and so far have not heard any complaints about getting a hand made gift. I even got My husbands Aunt into embroidery,that is wonderful ! She came to visit and went home a bought a machine just like mine.I love searching for just the "right" thing to put on something,then watching it sew. I love to "create" my own things as well.My other hobbies include canvas painting,hand embroidery,and ceramics. I fill my time with the things I enjoy,after all that is what life's about. I am a firm believer that when life deals you lemons....................make lemonade ! Make the best of life and live it to the fullest.

I now have a new venture going too and that is my own web site filled with the things that have to do with sewing and embroidery. So far it is going over very well and doing great! It has been a dream of mine for a long time to do this, so now I have. It's a fun and exciting time for me............I'm enjoying this sew much!
