There are still a few openings available for MLQG's "Bumble Bag" workshop in early November. Contact Outreach Chair Susan McC. ASAP to sign up for the fun day!
It’s two great MLQG activities rolled into one! MLQG will be holding a Workshop Mini-Retreat Combo on, Saturday, November 9th, at the First Presbyterian Church in Wellsboro, from 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM. The cost for the day is just $5.00!
For the workshop part of the combo, we will spend the morning making Bumble Bags for the Humble Bumble Project. Bumble Bags are handmade drawstring bags that contain small items of comfort (lip balm, tissues, hard candy, hand sanitizer, etc.) for pediatrics and young adults who are receiving cancer treatments. The pattern, fabric, and instruction will be provided by MLQG Outreach. Completed bags will be donated to the Humble Bumble project, a 501(c)(3) public charity, based in Tioga County, PA, dedicated to helping pediatric and young adult cancer patients and their families.
Bring your own lunch or order out from one of the local restaurants. Snacks to share throughout the day are always welcome!
The afternoon will consist of the Mini-Retreat portion of the day. Spend the afternoon working on your own projects or continue making Bumble Bags. The choice is yours!
For more information or to sign up please contact Susan McC., Outreach Chair or Ann K., Workshop Chair. Contact info can be found on the guild's roster and in every issue of the guild's newsletter.
