Garment Sewing Group is a monthly meeting featuring garments, pattern modification and review, and the latest news in the sewing world. Whether you are an experienced sewist (and you’ve been quilting while waiting for something like this:) or just beginning – this club is for you! Bring Show and Tell for a chance to win a door prize.
You may attend any scheduled Group meeting during the month in which you have paid. Group meetings will only be cancelled in extreme cases (bad weather, no electricity…). We’ve added a Fabric Swap feature to the Thursday meetings (we meet 2nd Wednesday and Saturday at other locations). Bring what you aren’t sewing, thin our your stash-fabric, patterns, notions, books are welcome-it’s all for free-let it go!! Let it go!! (Your children will thank you 🙂 And for those of you just coming in to sewing-come and get some great fabric!!! Fee for Garment Sewing Group is $10. Your first meeting is free! No registration necessary-just come!
You may attend one or all meetings in a month and only pay for one.
