In preparation for our first incoming team, we are preparing many things for the medical clinic that will be out in the poor neighborhood. One of the things we need to prepare are privacy screens. As I have no sewing machine, and purchasing curtains are out of the question, we went on a search in the city for inexpensive sheets to make as screens. Instead, we found a discount material store and purchased children's fabric. However, now we had the dilemma of how to get them sewn into what we needed. So - the three women (Madison, our friend Anne, and myself) all got together and had a good old fashioned sewing bee. We hand sowed sleeves into 12 yards of fabric. Yes, that's 36 feet of fabric. We all enjoyed the time fellowshipping and watching a movie together. Doing things the "old fashioned way". Fun times indeed. Once the framing is completed for them I'll be sure to post another picture. We are now only a week away from the teams arrival.
