This Thanksgiving we give thanks for Elias Howe, the sewing machine inventor to make the first practical sewing machine. From its beginning as a utilitarian device to today’s wonder machines, it has become a tool that gives us  unimaginable joy and fulfillment ! Do you agree?
Happy Thanksgiving all from all of us.

Birds of a Feather met Monday at the Delphos Public Library Annex. Each member was to bring enough Christmas ornament kits to exchange with the group. This fun project resulted in everyone going home with an assortment of new ornaments made at the meeting. Neat idea!!
