Newsletter June 2024 – Sunflower Design

Dear Friends,

We want our letter to find you well and healthy. The summer is here and we think all enjoy the sun and the warmer weather. In Caminul Felix is quiet, beautiful weather, green fields and a little smell from the farm.

In Sunflower, we are doing well. We combined work with orders and making new products. Some in the team is working despite of poor health conditions, and they work 4 hours per day.

We are very happy and grateful for this spring. We have many visitors, as in the years before the pandemic time. Visitors from Sweden, the UK, the States, France, Germany and Switzerland. Some are well known friends, some has never been here before. It is always a pleasure to welcome and meet new as well as well known friends and customers.

We enjoyed in particular way with a class of students from England. They spent some hours in our workshop and we worked together. We taught them to make things for them selves or their families. Some students made aprons, bags, wood tools, make-up bags, painted mugs and jewels.

We had a good sale and orders in March when we celebrated the International women day, or Mother’s day, as we say here. We also had orders of pillows and stuff for the garden.

In Sweden, Lisa and Catarina have some sells with good result. Lisa in Smålandsstenar and Catarina in Mölndal. In Mölndal we sold even tomatoes and cucumbers plants and other plats, for the benefit of Sunflower Design.

Thank you all who donated money for us to make beddings, sheets and curtains for the family at Caminul Felix and for the homeless in Dumbrava. It became a blessing for many. For our team it gave us work and for the children at Caminul Felix and the homeless in Dumbrava a pleasure to sleep in a bed with new beedings and sheets. The project will continue if anybody want to continue to support
