OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Ok, the final count on pillowcases going to the Wounded Warrior project is 66.
The extra fabric that was brought in on Sat was enough to make 15, I unsewed the last one from Sat that had problems and was able to get it back together to come up with 16.
Great job ladies!

Yes, Texas Sheetcake was a wonderful snack to get our energy back up in the late afternoon. Plus Sacmom sat there all afternoon and was the offical seam ripper. Taking out all our mistakes.
I have posted several pictures from Sat provided by Romance Writer above in the Discussion Forum.
I have managed to make four more pillowcases from the material that LZ bought on Sat. I am also busy unsewing that last pillowcase that we will not mention who was working on there at the end. Almost got it all unsewed. Were is Sacmom when I need her:)

I'm sorry I missed the event on Saturday, I really wanted to come but my granddaughter was having a gymnastics event and then my mom needed some visiting time with me, she hasn't been doing very well lately. That pretty much took all of Saturday. Hopefully next time. The pic is great! 51 pillowcases? AWESOME!

Spring....Yes, we missed your!! We can't wait to try all the new recipes I am sure your learned at the Papered Chef launch.
I will be sending out the pillowcases in the next couple of weeks. We can always send more later as we have Birdie in our group and she is always sending stuff throughout the year.
Yes, it is always great to spend the afternoon with all of you! You all make my world complete.
