Farina (who was too shy to be in the photo) was so determined to make head way on this special, swishy green dress last Saturday! With Madiha's expert help she is well on her way to finishing.  With just two Saturday afternoons at sewing group, meeting Farina showed me just how exciting it can be to develop a new skill like sewing and how satisfying it is to make something unique that is yours alone.

As the brand new Project Officer at MWSG, I'm really enjoying meeting new members like Farina as well those who've been coming quite a bit longer.  If I haven't met you yet, I should explain I've been employed by the Brunswick Baptist Church to assist the group in becoming financial sustainable into the future.   So apart from getting to know everyone, I'll be trying to organise how we do things, including getting us incorporated!  If you'd like to know what's involved in this exciting step as well as the other ideas we have to help the group grow, then please make sure your contact details are up to date (ask for a form) or look out for me the next time you are in.  


Looking forward to meeting you,
Angela Stock



p.s There's still a little time left to help raise money by buying bulbs (to plant NOW for beautiful flowers in spring). The more we sell the more money we have for sewing group so ask your friends and family to order now.  See Jennifer or Angela for order forms. Payment due Saturday 28 March.
