What is a Sew Day? It's like a mini retreat. Members bring their projects: machines or handwork are welcome. You can bring your hand embroidery, crochet or knitting projects too. We don't mind as long as you are making something with thread, floss or yarn! It's always fun to get together with friends and work on projects. What is more wonderful than a room full of humming sewing machines?
A few ideas for things to work on:
- Contribute to our community service project. We are making ten lap quilts for a local nursing home. We will have fabric available to sew blocks for the two patterns that we are working on, just bring your machine and thread!
- Work on your improv quilt along project Assistance and advice will be available from members of the guild.
- Work on your Block of the Month blocks!
- Work on your Negative Space Challenge entry!
- Bring your unfinished projects or UFOs to get some encouragement to finish!
- Bring some orphan blocks or fabric to donate to our community service work.
