Cushioned

I spent much of yesterday as part of a cushion-making team. The group I belong to will be holding a conference in March next year. The venue is an old church. The pews are rather hard so we're going to give each delegate a cushion they can sit on and then take home. Corlie managed to get curtaining samples that worked well to give an array of cushions. We made 27 yesterday. The photo below shows the machinists, but there were others ironing, cutting, sweeping up the scraps....

It was fun working in a group instead of on my own as I usually do.

  1. It looks like you had a productive day! I remember sewing days at church when I was in high school. There doesn't seem to be much of that around here any longer. Many people seem more willing to go out and buy something rather than make it.

  2. It is fun to make things as a group, once we made eye pillows and filled then with rice.

  3. You all look very industrious as you would have to be to produce that number of pillows! I love the blue bag on the table.

  5. Such a thoughtful idea and gift. Group fun and getting it done is better than trying to do it alone. Creative Cushion Bliss...
