| Cheryl, Amy and me |
There are four of us (from our Friends of the Library group) who meet at the library on Wednesday's. We arrive around noon - 2 or 3 in the afternoon. We sort and put away on shelves or sorted boxes any donation books we've received through the week. We like to keep up with donations so it's not a crazy time for our spring or fall book sales.
Amy is currently in Florida for the winter and Chery (pic below)l is also in Florida for the week celebrating her 60th Anniversary!
This is Beth displying one of her embroidery pieces she's working on! Beth has so many she has completed and continues to work on!
Cheryl is also prolific in producing embroidery pieces! Her Chickadee is amazing! You have to enhance the picture to see the detail of this bird!
This is another current piece Beth is working on!! I can't imagine trying to embroider in this small cloth!
And this is one of Cheryl's current completed embroidery pieces she had farmed!
It's beautiful isn't it! Again, enlarge the picture so you can really see the workmanship.
This is another piece Beth completed this last month. She's looking to find just the right frame for it. I love this piece too...
When we're finished doing any sorting/shelving, we'll sit and 'stitch, knit, embroidery, sew'..whatever project each of us are working on.
Here are the ladies working on their project(s). It's such a nice seating area.
Actually, our Friends of the Library group purchased this rug and seating area along with end tables and lights. Any funds from our books sales, we use to support programs or needs of the library.
This area is also used for tutoring students. Nice and quiet and perfect for other group meetings as well.
We do work hard, although by the pics above of us sitting, you might not believe it! HA Some days we are bombarded with donations. I mean boxes and boxes of donation books. Some have to be discarded because of torn pages, mildew, dirt, etc. But for the most part, we are fortunate to have great patrons who provide us donation books for our yearly sales. And our Goodrich library is also great at donating books that are no longer in circulation for us to sell.
So, I'll be at the library later today!
