September 21, 2016 (Fairmont, NC) ─ The concept of the old fashioned sewing circle is alive and well at Greenbrier, a DePaul Senior Living Community in Fairmont. One week at a time, one stich at a time, residents have been crafting sewing projects throughout the year.

Pictured here, Greenbrier residents Inez Allen, Lula Denny, Barbara Lowery, Lee Ann Sproul and Sherri Hunt show off pillow shirts they made this summer.

“Sewing is a popular project here at Greenbrier residents enjoy reminiscing about things they sewed for their family,” said Activity Director Antionetta Fulmore. “It’s always I remember when…”

In addition to sewing, residents have made birdhouses, wreaths, magazine dolls, newspapers hats, aprons, quilts, wood crafts, earrings and necklaces among many others.

“I am just as excited to see the residents working on these projects as they are to see the outcome,” Fulmore added.
