January

Our next meeting will be: 

 Monday January 21st at "Come Share" Seniors Center.

The meeting starts at 7pm, Try to arrive early to visit with others, and help set up the room. The doors will open at 6:30pm.

What to bring: We will be having a sit and stitch.  If you have a hand sewing project, such as binding or applique, knitting or cross stitch, this is ideal. There will be a couple of tutorials to listen to, as well as some time to socialize while you sit and stitch. We can also set up tables if you need to baste a quilt. If you don't have a project to bring along, that's OK.  Gloria will bring more of the blue OR wraps that we are using for lining the bibs. Perhaps you would like to cut out the bib pattern on the blue wraps. Bring a pair of scissors if you want to do this. Vivian has a box of fabric that she is bringing along that she thinks will be suitable for making bibs with. Be sure to check it out.


If you have something for Sew, Show, 'n' Tell please bring it to show.

Bring money for a Sharzee's draw. (If you want to participate)

Wear your name tag. (There will be a name tag draw.)
