Elder's Quorum Family Home Evening

Bring your family to the Elder's Quorum FHE at Crafton Park, tonight! Monday, October 26th, at 5:30 pm. Bring your own dinner if you want to eat there, and a blanket. We are carving pumpkins so bring your own pumpkin and carving tools! The kids had a blast doing this last year and playing on the playground together. Even if you don't want to carve a pumpkin, you can come just to mingle with everyone! It's a lot of fun! Cookies and punch will be served. See you there!

Super Saturday Follow Up

So we had a great day last Saturday and we got lots of things done. And as promised here is the information for the
ROLL-UP Chalkboard.
Here is where I bought the FABRIC
Nancy's Notions
(One yard will make 9 12x15 boards)

Here are the tutorials we used for our inspiration.
Little Birdie Secrets
Not So Idle Hands

We sort of took ideas from both and made our own variation. We followed Little Birdie Secrets Tutorial but added the tie from Not So Idle Hands to make it a roll -up board. Then Myra made this awesome little pocket for the chalk to go in. So just ask her or myself if you want to add the pocket to your board and we will show you how. It really turned out fantastic and I can't wait to whip up a few more for Christmas Gifts. Another little option that Anne showed us is to use iron on vinyl with your fabric making it a good water-proof place mat. If you have any other questions just give me a call. - rach

Sisters,
We have a lot of Events coming up or in the works for Relief Society.
October 10th from 9am to 4pm
we will be holding our Craft Day in the church gym. These are the projects we have planned...Vinyl Lettering

Freezer Paper Art Go wild on this one. You can put your image on T-shirts, baby clothes, bags, pillows etc. Bring your own Image, Material, Fabric paint and x-acto knife.


Roll-up chalkboard mats Bring your fabric (fat 1/4 big enough) bias tape and thread.


Crocheted purse you need to bring a "G" hook, darning needle and 1/2 skein of yarn for each color (max. 4 colors). Crocheted Slipper bring a"G" hook, darning needle and 2 skeins of 100% WOOL. This is very important because it need to be felted after crocheted.
