Sewing Bee for Raffa Clinic

Deborah, Hannah & Jonathan came over and helped Mom & I sew baby blankets for Raffa Clinic.

    
The baby blankets: most of them are cute flannels that reverse to some kind small grey print.


Refreshments:
Meatballs, Dutch Baby Pancake, Deviled Eggs, and Peach Shortcake!


Thanks for coming, we had a lot of fun! =)

Jonathan ironed most of baby fabric.
(Thank you, so much!)

The following is the invitation- feel free to copy it for your event! =)
