Pages past, June 22: Hassell Club helps with sewing

On this date …

1972: The Hassell Club had recently met at the home of Mrs. Ronald Lewis.

“The members helped Mrs. Lewis catch up with her sewing. They did machine and hand sewing such as dresses, pant suits and toppers for the Lewis girls as well as doing the hand work on these pieces,” the Clovis News-Journal reported.

“Mrs. Lewis had the garments cut out. Two members brought their machines.”

The business portion of the meeting focused on discussion about making sandwiches and cookies for an upcoming 4H meeting.

Eight members of the club were present, along with seven visitors.

Hassell is located in Quay County near House.
