Sit-N-Sew: Project: Women in Recovery

This month's Sit-N-Sew is on Saturday, August 30th from 10:30 AM - 3:30 PM. This is a good opportunity to work on a project. Because we are in the Board Room there will not be any tables available for basting quilts. We should be moving back to the Auditorium in the Fall once Goodwin House completes the project they are working on.

This is also the third installment of the "Women In Recovery" project spearheaded by Kath Heslop. The previous two Sit-N-Sews had people working in teams to create a quilted wall hanging using fabric scraps that participants had brought. The wall hangings will be given to women who are participating in a drug recovery program.

This last session will be covering binding and finishing techniques. The finished projects are due by September's Birthday Bee, aka first Monday of the month. The finished projects will be presented on September 5th.

We are meeting in the board room so we'll only have room for about 5 sewing machines.

Bring your own lunch, or walk to Giant and visit their salad bar or deli counter.

Hope to see you there!

UPDATE: Because we are in the Board Room there will not be tables available for basting quilts. Hopefully, we'll be back in the Auditorium by Fall '08!
