THE HELMET LINERS WERE SHIPPED THIS WEEK. ROSEMARY TELLS ME THAT WHEN THE COURIER SAW THE 18 BOXES HE WENT PALE, BUT QUICKLY RECOVERED WHEN HE REALIZED HOW LIGHT THEY WERE. THANKS AGAIN TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DID NOT GET YOUR HELMET LIENRS IN IN TIME PLEASE DONATE THEM TO A COATS FOR KIDS DRIVE OR IF YOU HAVE A SQUADRON THAT SOMEONE YOU LOVE IS ASSOCIATED WITH PERHAPS YOU CAN GIVE THEM TO THE SERVICE THAT WAY. APPARENTLY THE LINES ARE MOVING IN OTTAWA AND THEY HAVE 4000 BOXES TO PACK AND THAT TAKES TIME HENCE THE SEPTEMBER 1ST DEADLINE.
NEW IN THIS WEEK, FRILL SEEKER YARN. THIS IS A VERIGATED YARN THAT LOOKS MUCH LIKE NETTING AND KNITS INTO A FRILLY SCARF FOR THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE FOR CHRISTMAS. I'VE BEEN WORKING ON MY SCARF TODAY IN BETWEEN CUSTOMERS AND IT'S TURNING OUT WELL. IT TOOK ME A LITTLE WHILE TO GET ON TO IT BUT FRANNY STOPPED IN AND HELPED AND IT IS WORKING UP QUITE QUICKLY
FOR $14.99 YOU CAN KNIT A GIFT FOR SOMEONE FOR CHRISTMAS.
I WILL BE TEACHING A SMOCKING CLASS ON THURSDAYS FOR ANY OF YOU INTERESTED IN DROPPING IN AND LEARNING THE TECHNIQUE. WE HAVE A DROP IN GROUP OF STITCHERS AND I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW. IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN SMOCKING JUST DROP IN AND STITCH. BRING ANY PROJECT YOU ARE WORKING ON WITH YOU.
HOPE ALL OF YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND GET DOWN TO THE SCOTTISH IRISH FESTIVAL ON THIS WEEKEND IN TRENTON. I'M GOING TOMORROW MORNING TO CHECK OUT THE PIPES.
MARY ANNE
