Well! It’s been a bit of strange year for all of us and we know the fundraising efforts of all clubs and charities have been terribly impacted, as everyone tries to predict the future.
This horrid Pandemic has certainly brought out the 'resilience and creativity' in some people and I think we all want to add value to our community in some small way.
So, I decided to approach some of the more experienced sewers in the group and asked them if they would like to help me make 200 face masks.
Believe me, it was no mean task, when you consider making a medical grade face mask takes about 30 mins and that’s not including cutting 6 pieces of fabric for each mask.
But, with the help from Jan Cameron, Margaret Broadhead, Joan Giacometti, Jo-Anne Moffat, Ann Davison and a great friend of Joyce Collins, Cynthia Cohen supporting, we are on our way to completing the task in readiness to sell them ALL on
Saturday 3rd Oct in 2 locations.

We will have a table outside the Pottery Green Bakery on Eastern Road, Turramurra and another in Wahroonga village, opposite the zebra crossing. We do need volunteers for selling the masks please, so if you have a couple of hours spare on the Saturday between 9am - 3pm I would really appreciate your support.

Once again, a huge thank you to all the beautiful women who helped me create these masks and I’m really looking forward to having lots of fun selling them to the community. We’re hoping to raise $3,000 for the Youth Committee.
