December 2014 Workday

The last workday of the year was a wonderful social and productive day. Some of our members made table toppers taught to us by Joy. The creative fabric choices really made each topper look different and so beautiful. We enjoyed a lunch of rolls, cold cuts, cheese, vegetables etc. and Caesar  salad prepared for us by Dorothy and Wendy.
