Thursday Sewing Group
Fifth Thursday Sew-Ins
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. Check out the Community Service page for 2023 and the Calendar page for all the upcoming community service projects.
Feel free to work on any of these projects at home as well as during our designated sewcials. ![]() Our guild continues to reach out to our community with compassion sewing and quilts.

And what quilter doesn't love to save money?! Using a brilliant worksheet from Jinny Beyer Studio based on a John Flynn method, Bradie is able to easily turn this 60" wide fabric into 77" without having to use two full lengths of fabric.
