Sewing with Barb

Barb, and her hubby Bruce, have been our friends since 1978!  While we were visiting this last summer, she asked if there was any way she could be of help to us in our ministry. Barb is an excellent seamstress.  She uses her gifts in so many ways and is truly delighted to serve. 

When I see beautiful crafts with  intricate patterns or even mats for the homeless made from used plastic grocery bags, I am thankful for the creative people in my life who joyfully share their gifts with others. Thanks, Barb.

Bruce and Barb have supported us in many intangible ways; here are just a few of the tangible ways Barb has been able to help:

 


A cover for our digital recorder
A cover/carrier for my Nook
A bag for our mixer

A passport, mini purse.  Barb made a number of these, one for each member of our mission team for our trip to Jamaica. Barb, on the right with our friend Gina, who also received an original, hand-made passport holder.
