Fifth Thursday Sewing
Four months of the year have a fifth Thursday, ​so we are designating this day as a sew-in.
The first one is March 30.
Andrea Thompson is going to lead a program making aprons from men’s dress shirts. These were very popular at the Christmas Market.
Be on the lookout for an XL men’s shirt that you can repurpose!
​We’ll send a complete supply list closer to the date.



It's not too late to get started!  Join us!
