(Continued from page 68) makers are always welcome. Roberta Slovis, card maker extraordinaire, has led several card making workshops. These cards are a huge hit at the annual Sun City Summerlin Craft Fair. Olga Neckelman (pictured) volunteers at Heaven Can Wait Animal Society, and, along with Dottie Janowsky and Diane Barton, crochet little blankets for animals recovering from surgery.
