Twelve ladies attended the last Activity Day for 2021. It was a very relaxed gathering with everyone wanting to 'catch up' with each other before getting down to the serious stuff of creating and making.

| Time for a 'catch up' |
Dawn had her sewing tools ready to start assembling some of the lovely children's hospital gowns she had precut. Children's printed sheets and 'doona' covers are perfect with their big, bold prints.

Linda and Dawn have also been hard at work creating these stunning 'touchy feelie' tablecloths for the Sundale Retirement Village at Coolum.

Of course some of the ladies had their priorities right and decided some morning tea was required before getting started!

| There is always a delicious morning tea provided |
Marion and Bridget spent some time trying to solve some over-locker issues, but to no avail...looks as though we need to call the sewing machine mechanic!
Pam and Yvonne peruse some to the donated fabric to see if there is anything suitable for their chosen crafts.
Dawn is never one to just work on one task! She also brought some of her hospital drainage bags to finish assembling.

Jenny spent some time explaining how to assemble the hospital eye-masks. They are specifically designed for stroke patients who have developed paralysis on one side of their face.

And voila! There were eye-masks!
Reminder:
Sunshine Linus' final Restricted Distribution Meeting for 2021 is next Monday! Make sure you book a timeslot with Judie B as it will be your last opportunity to drop off items and pick up supplies!
