ISOLATION IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH!


 Hello Quilters! I hope everyone had a great weekend. It snowed again here in Michigan, and that meant that I spent time in my sewing/quilting room. What fun! One of the things I did was decide what I was going to sew when I attend the Happy Scrappers at the Attic Window Quilt Shop this coming Saturday. I found some blocks from 2009 and decided I would use them to make them into a quilt for charity. These blocks were sent to me from around the world. I belonged to a group back then (can’t remember the name of the group) and we made blocks for each person in the group. I have blocks from Australia, the Netherlands, the UK, and a number from various places in the US. As you can see, one of the blocks above was from the UK and the other from Tennessee. What a fun group.

We hope you will join us Happy Scrappers this Saturday. I just read that social isolation is as harmful to your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Now, don’t do that to yourself. Come join us for a fun day of sewing and socializing. This group is so helpful and sharing. Not only do they share ideas, but Adrienne brought in a big tote of scraps for us to dig through and use in a project we may be working on. You don’t have to use scraps. Maybe you have a quilt you are trying to finish. That’s fine. We don’t require you use scraps. We just want you to join us for a fun time.

We meet the last Saturday of every month from 10-4. The cost is just $5. You can bring your lunch, or run out to one of the many restaurants or fast food places near by. No need to register for the day, just surprise us and show up ready to sew and socialize!

Hope to see you there.
