Virtual Hook-in!

Image
On Saturday, April 11th at 1:00, nine members of Saint Henri met on Zoom for a hook-in. At Kathleen's invitation (Thank you for organizing that!)  Helen, Dayna, Yannick, Carolyn, Margaret, Maureen, Leslie and I  logged on. It was somewhat challenging for some of us less computer savvy but most of us managed it. We thought we would have only 40 minutes but we only logged off at 3:00. Dayna took some screen shots to share. We hope to do it again next week!  Kathleen's beavers Maureen's living room rug Leslie's Acorn Rug Hellen's punch Dayna's Llama

What a wonderful weekend! What made it special was the gathering of members guilds from not only Montreal but also from the Ottawa area. Present were members of St Henri, Beaconsfield, Old Forge and Burris Falls (hope I didn't miss any!). There were hours of talking, laughing, sharing, consultation, encouragement, admiration and we did hook as well. It was a great success. Thanks to Loretta, Isabelle and Jacques for vending their fabulous wares! Carol P. sent me some photos of Saturday evening - the view from the dining room. Enjoy the photos!

Today was our first hook-in of the year! A small group gathered to open the 2019-2020 season. The members who signed up today received a Tapissiers de Saint Henri Rug Hookers Members card and a beautiful little croctehed heart made by our own Yanick. We had a small but great launch to the year. Welcome to a new member, Leslie!
