Craft Project

The annual Caselle spring street fair is coming up this Sunday.  We have participated in previous years with our prior church plant.  This year we are participating with the charity, Caritas.  The table they set up sells handmade items that have been donated in order to generate money to help the poor in the community.  We are so thankful for the generous contribution from the "Knit 2 Together" ladies from Robinson Baptist Church.  They sent us a large box filled with nearly 100 knitted items for us to contribute to the Caritas table.  Thank you so much, ladies!

In addition, we thought it would be a nice idea to have those who receive from the charity to contribute in a small way themselves towards this project.  As a team we footed the bill for the raw materials to make 20 appliquéd tea towels with those who wanted to participate with us.  There were a handful of ladies interested in crafting with us, but with illness and this never ending season of rain we had a small turnout.  The past two Saturday afternoons we enjoyed the fellowship and opportunity to build relationships with two ladies.  We had fun together and it was very satisfying for all of us to complete each towel.  I enjoyed the opportunity to teach this project to the ladies and I think they turned out well.
