Friday's Stitching Ground ๐ŸŠ

Today's stitching ground brought me to the pool to cool down after  picking corn in the morning with the youth group. Since I couldn't be at the beach, I figured stitching this after swimming was better than nothing!

That will have to be another post, it was a great week of service projects and fun, with a detour for me visiting my Mom in the hospital. She's still there but hopefully home tomorrow or Sunday at the latest.


Do you like to volunteer anywhere?

I've always volunteered in our community for the past 25 years in lots of different ways.
She looks great.
Poor mum, hoping she is soon back home relaxed. Has her new dog arrived yet? Xx

Another great place to stitch. I would love to volunteer but I can barely walk or stand for more than 5 minutes. Your piece looks great. Glad Mom is doing better.

What a sweet piece you are stitching. Good news about your mother Astrid.

Lovely stitching, Astrid! The fabric looks nice to stitch on.
So glad to hear your mother will be back home soon!
Hugs,

I volunteer at the local Ronald McDonald House doing data entry. I'm also Treasurer and Product Sales Coordinator for my daughter's/granddaughter's Girl Scout Troop and used to volunteer in my granddaughter's classroom, but now that she's in Middle School, I won't be doing that anymore. BTW, I still love that mermaid.

Great stitching Astrid, hope your Mum comes home soon. Volunteers are vital in many organisations, I've been involved with Scouting since I was 16 :-)

Your stitching looks great! Wonderful place to stitch if you can't be by the real ocean. Hope your mom is doing better. I think of her every day.

Love that mermaid.
At the moment I run a Baby & Toddler Group and I'm on the PTA for my younger son's school. I help out there sometimes too.
I also Admin a Support and Information Group on FB.
In the past I have done telephone helpline volunteering. Apart from the year I took off when my older son was born I have held a voluntary position of some kind for 20 years!
