HATS

MY CRAFTING DAYS are a thing of the past, so I was at home when the telephone rang, requesting that Mr. Bob come down to take pictures of the hats residents had made in an afternoon activity. On Tuesdays he goes to the Men's Group, so the caller suggested that I be the one with the camera. Later, the receptionist on duty expressed contrition at the idea of our being "on call", as it were, but I felt it had been helpful since our job is to create a picture album of the year's activities.









When I arrived, armed with my trusty little Canon PowerShot, the ladies were putting the finishing touches on their chapeaux, and I was just in time to capture their creations on what we used to call film.   




















I, myself, love the idea of wearing hats and I've bought my fair share of them, but when I put them on, I look silly, so off they come.
































This little lady is
about as big as a minute. She's the one who professes to being sometimes lonely, so I'm sure she enjoyed the crafting session. On Friday there'll be a
tea in honor of Mother's Day, so the ladies will don their bonnets for that.
