Thank you to everyone who managed to come, it was a very productive session. I have to say a very big thank you to the volunteers who are so incredibly patient with me when they need help or have questions and I get distracted walking from one side of the room to the other. Remember what I always say ... If I don't come back just hound me until I do ;-)
We discussed where we are at in terms of completed items and ways we can increase the workflow.
There was an update on our "never-ending" search for a flannel supplier, the purchase of new machines (welcome to the family Cherry-Kerry, Cherry-Merry, Cherry-Fairy, Cherry-Berry the Janome sewing machines and also Rose, Daisy, and Tulip the Janome Sergers/Overlockers), and we discussed the recent fairs we have showcased DfG and our plans for upcoming distribution ideas.
To build a bridge between the bag and shield sewing we are going to introduce some panty liners using up some of the off-cuts from our cotton, flannel and PUL so look out for a separate post on that shortly. These are not for distribution but they will be added to the small arsenal of goods we have to sell at craft fairs to raise money for materials.
Welcome to the new volunteers who joined us today, we appreciate your participation and we hope you had fun.
Tentatively we are looking at February 11th for the next volunteer morning which will be confirmed soon.
To follow are some pictures of the AMAZING beautiful kind hearted ladies we have volunteering with us.
Thanks for stopping by ...
