Carroll County Extension Homemakers recently hosted their annual sewing day to sew for others. Eighteen adults were kept busy sewing items for the Toy Store, a part of the Christmas Baskets project. They made 215 gift bags to be used to fill with small presents for ages 0-12 and have a head start on next year’s sewing with 105 bags in process. Several of the sewers brought additional items they created at home. The additional items included six cloth bags, 21 doll blankets, and three sets of doll clothes. The Homemakers have plans to make additional pajama/fleece pants and more doll clothes between now and Dec. 7. “Our community is certainly blessed to have these wonderful volunteers,” Susie Dyke, project coordinator said.
