Clubhouse Show and Tell…

With many of the Snowbirds starting their long migration North we were way down in numbers..with only ten members left…yikes!  But we still managed to have fun…and we planned ONE more trip to JoAnn’s for this weekend (big sale happening!)…and we also managed to devour a yummy carrot cake in honour of Sandy’s Birthday!

Let’s get the show on the road…

Kim finished her coffee cups…which she is planning on hanging in her studio back home…

  3. Lots of great projects and I wish I hadn't see that, lol. I was thinking about using something like the eagle print to do a bedspread to make it simple and fast and remembered our store had that print on sale and this week a 30% off sale, I do not need to shop, lol.

    That baby blanket is gorgeous, I used to do crochet and appreciate the beauty in her design and work.
