Stitchin 2005 Well the inaugural Spring Stitch-in is over and what a success it was! 46 ladies plus helpers enjoyed a wonderful day of stitching therapy, eating, laughing, chatting, sharing and growing. And the charity quilt was all but finished. I will put some pics up once it is done. It will then be donated to the Hobart Womens Health Centre who will then raffle it to raise funds for their many worthy projects for local women in the community. Thankyou to all who contributed to make it such a perfect day- exactly as I had planned. Read some comments from participants below: Hello Helen and helpers I would like to take the opportunity to express my delight at attending the Stitch-In. It was simply brillant and I made some new friends as a added bonus. I cannot imagine the work that went into organising it but I really appreciated it. The venue was great too! Thanks again and I am already looking forward to next year. Kindest Regards S
Congratulations to you and Linda, a really good
day and obviously everybody enjoyed it. Your attention to detail is
commendable! Liz
Dear Helen,
Congratulations on a very successful enterprise
yesterday. I enjoyed the day and so did many I spoke to. I hope that you are
planning to organize something similar next year.
I have a few, I hope, constructive comments.
The lighting was very poor in most of the room.
For those of us needing glasses it was still difficult to see properly.
The food was terrific, but perhaps more savoury
type food for morning and afternoon tea would be appropriate. I know that I
would have preferred bikkies and cheese! [Watching the waistline.]
I think that the charity quilt was an excellent
idea. You informed us before hand that this was the main item for the day. No
one could get upset about doing it. I hope that you can come up with another
great idea next time - hopefully not hexagons.
The musical recitals was a pleasant interlude to
the laughter and talking. the massaging was a very welcome pleasure. More next
time!
Thank you and your helpers for a great day of
friendship.
Cheers
D
