Who's ready for the Eternal Angel's 2026 Volunteer Sewing/Work days? We will kick off 2026 with our January gathering at Immaculate Conception on Saturday, January 24, from 9am until 3pm. WE NEED TO SHUT DOWN OUR DAY ONE HOUR EARLIER THAN OUR NORMAL QUITTING TIME! Immaculate Conception Church is in Eau Claire (behind Perkins, across from St. John's church).
A huge THANK YOU to Immaculate Conception for opening their church to us to use again! And THANK YOU to our 3 hostesses for the day, that I forgot to ask permission to post their names, so I won't.......yet!
This time we will meet from 9am - 3pm (ending one hour earlier than our usual quitting time). Come for the entire day or whatever part your schedule allows. We will be working on everything associated with creating all our angel outfits from de-constructing, to laying out patterns & pinning, to cutting, to sewing, ironing, removing beading, hand sewing appliques, the list is long & vast. And all abilities are needed, whether you know how to sew or not!
If you do know how to sew, bring your sewing machine, power cords, sewing pins, & white thread if you have it, otherwise we have extra. Everything else will be provided including an instruction book & lots of moral support & encouragement! If you don't know how to sew, that's great too! Just bring eager hands & a compassionate heart & you will fit right in! If you've ever thought about joining us, but haven't yet, we'd love to meet you & share what we do with you!
Lunch is potluck & all the volunteers are strongly encouraged to join us for lunch! We always have a big variety of foods to choose from to accommodate everyone's preferences, so feel free to bring any dish to pass you'd like. And if time or finances don't allow you to bring anything, no worries, as we have tons of food to share & would love to dine with you all! PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN BEVERAGES FOR THE DAY!
VERY IMPORTANT: As usual, if you plan on joining us, please make sure to click on the "going" option on this Facebook event (or send me a private message) so I know how many volunteers to plan for. I need to make sure I bring enough work to keep everyone busy while they're there!
THANKS EVERYONE, I am so excited to see you all again after our two months off! (If there's anything I forgot to share in this event description, message me or comment below & I can respond more!)
