Ann will be teaching us how to make car seat covers at the church at 6:00 Tuesday, August 10th. You will need 2 different contrasting colors of material. One yard of each if you want to make the ties out of fabric. (or you can make the ties with ribbon which is much easier, in that case bring 3/4 yard of each fabric, and then you will also need contrasting ribbon for the ties on the top). Also if you want embellishments such as rick rack then you should bring that as well. Please bring a sewing machine if you have one, along with your thread, scissors, etc, and an extension cord if you have one. If you are not interested in making this project, feel free to bring along whatever project you are already working on. It's a lot of fun to sew with everyone else!
The Humanitarian Board is collecting school supplies: glue sticks, crayons, colored pencils, child scissors, pencil sharpeners, stickers, and construction paper. If you can help out we would appreciate it. To involve the youth and Primary kids we are holding a contest. We will have baskets in front of the primary doors and the Young Women/Men's doors for the next three weeks. Drop your donated items in to help them win!
The Humanitarian Board is also collecting fabric of any kind and size. The would like to start making bags for school kits as well as quilts. If you have anything to donate contact Stephanie Duvall.
Tuesday the 17th: Clothing Exchange: the last one went well...there were a lot of cute things! If you are interested, please look through the closets in your house for items that have been outgrown and bring them along that night. You may come and choose items even if you do not bring anything. This is a great chance to get a few new items for kids for school for free! Adult clothing and baby clothing will also be exchanged...whatever you have!
Please contact Valerie McCorristin if she doesn't yet have a picture of you for the ward directory. If you don't have her contact info, send an email to wardcookbook@yahoo.com and we will send it to you in a private message.
