Good Morning!

A busy day in LosTambos yesterday! We were in the process of finishing our uniform shirts.

We have all 18 finished except for the buttons and button holes. That requires practice...lots of practice.

All did a pretty good job. The biggest stumbling block for them was to get the sleeves put on.

Needless to say anyone who has sewn understands. As for me I became proficient at putting

in sleeves.

We had another beautiful day about 86 degrees and last evening a cold front went through. Rain came with the cold front and brought much needed water. Much to the happiness of the Howler monkeys.

They have been howling all week wanting rain. Now they might be quiet for a while.

Today's temperature will only be in the 70's, cloudy but looks like it will clear.

 

 

 

 

This is Rosanna and her daughter Daisy. Rosanna has come to our classes in the

past. She sews all her daughter's clothes by hand.  She is a very talented lady. Now she is learning to use the machines.

Hopefully some of the young daughters in the pictures will be able to learn from their mothers.

 

Dorothy this one is for you! Here are all the little roosters at work.

They all say thank you so much for bringing the materials and helping them.

The roosters were also made by hand, no electric power for the machines. What is so nice

is that didn't stop Dorothy and didn't stop the ladies from making what they wanted.

 

Last evening we had a great group for embroidery! We even had some children that worked with us.

That class and ice cream completed our day.

Laundry is on the line and machines are packed............off to Buena Vista for the sewing class. Then on to embroidery class tonight at 5:30.
