When: April 11, 2026

Come one and all! Bring your sewing machines or offer to iron, cut or layout all items the BEE Sew Quilty bee group has been making over the last few months. 
Their project is in honor of the 250th Birthday of our country. Many of the red' white and blue items they have been making will go to various veterans honoring them with little gifts of quilts, placemats, totes or door hangers. 

Come join us or just stop by to see what we are up to. Feel free to work on your own project and bring things for show and tell. 


Don't forget you can sign up for the upcycled hoodie workshop with Sheila Green on Saturday June 6th.
