The focus of our group is now and has always been finishing what we have started. That is why the majority of our time is spent in our regular meetings, which are Sit 'N Sew. This generally means you bring in our own project and work on it. We have a wealth of information in the club that people are willing to share. So if you are stumped, bring your problem in and we will try to help you figure it out. Even basic quilting/sewing information can be answered in this group.
