🌞 Sunshine Linus October Meeting ☀️
It was a hot and steamy meeting this month, with temperatures outside sitting in the high 30s! Fortunately, a gentle breeze drifted through the hall, and that, along with plenty of laughter and creativity, kept everyone smiling. 🧵💛
At our second-last meeting of the year, our wonderful members were thanked for all their help, kindness, and donations throughout the year. 🙏 Your support keeps Sunshine Linus running beautifully!
Our Sales Table was once again filled with handcrafted items, delicious food, lovely plants, and a few surprises 🍰🌿 — thank you to everyone who contributes each month. Next month, the Sales Table will be the perfect spot for Christmas shopping. 🎁 🎁
🧶 Show & Tell ✂️
This month’s quilts showed just how good teamwork can be. 💕 Rosalie brought along some gorgeous quilt tops from the retreat. Robyn kindly offered to bind them because binding isn’t Rosalie's favourite thing to do! What do they say? Teamwork makes the dream work. 💖🌻
