Who's ready for the June Volunteer gathering? We will be meeting on Saturday, June 21, from 9am - 4pm, at Immaculate Conception Church in Eau Claire (behind Perkins, across from St. John's church).
A huge THANK YOU to Immaculate Conception for opening their church to us to use for the very first time! And THANK YOU to our 3 hostesses for the day, that I forgot to ask permission to post their names, so I won't.......yet!
I don't have a lot of details to share about the church, since it's our first time at this church, but just watch for my signs or follow the sound of our voices when you arrive. As usual we will meet from 9am-4pm. Come for the entire day or whatever part your schedule allows.
We will be working on everything associated with creating all our angel outfits from de-constructing, to laying out patterns & pinning, to cutting, to sewing, ironing, removing beading, hand sewing appliques, the list is long & vast. And all abilities are needed, whether you know how to sew or not!
If you do know how to sew, bring your sewing machine, power cords, sewing pins, & white thread if you have it, otherwise we have extra. Everything else will be provided included an instruction book & lots of moral support & encouragement! If you don't know how to sew, that's great too! Just bring eager hands & a compassionate heart & you will fit right in! If you've ever thought about joining us, but haven't yet, we'd love to meet you & share what we do with you!
Lunch is potluck & all the volunteers are strongly encouraged to join us for lunch! We always have a big variety of foods to choose from to accommodate everyone's preferences, so feel free to bring any dish to pass you'd like. And if time or finances don't allow you to bring anything, no worries, as we have tons of food to share & would love to dine with you all! PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN BEVERAGES FOR THE DAY!
VERY IMPORTANT: As usual, if you plan on joining us, please make sure to click on the "going" option on this Facebook event (or send me a private message) so I know how many volunteers to plan for. I need to make sure I bring enough work to keep everyone busy while they're there!
THANKS EVERYONE, I am so excited to see you all again before we take a break from meeting for the summer months! (If there's anything I forgot to share in this event description, message me or comment below & I can respond more!)
