The group came together after Dykes placed an ad in the Greeneville Sun encouraging crafts-people to come together for a good cause. Each member agreed that the experience has been rewarding on several levels. Others in the community who were not able to come to the regular meetings also donated finished products, or worked on their projects at home. Jean Susong enlisted her daughter, Sandra Smith, to sew knitted squares together. Probably the best part about the whole thing is meeting people and finding out about them.
Dykes encourages anyone interested in the project to attend the meetings.
While the group will meet once a month during the summer, it will begin weekly meetings again in the fall. Those interested in participating or contributing may call 636-7300, extension 254 for more information.
