November Sew Day Highlights


We had an enjoyable Sew Day with over 20 members sharing holiday gift ideas and participating in the bag sew along!


Here are some of the gift ideas, project links are at the bottom of the page.

 

Top L-R: Julie Karjala with a mug organizer, Linda Crump & Sheila Green showing the Schlep Bag
Bottom L-R: Kristie Jarchow with a portable design wall, Vicky Bedell with a holiday wreath.


For the bag sew along, we had three options, a wine bottle bag, the Sew Together Bag and the Bionic Gear Bag. Thankfully, we had several people who had already made these items and were willing to help out with directions! 

When you finish your bag, share a photo to our LMQG Facebook page or if you're on Instagram, use the #lincolnmqg hashtag so we all can see! Click on the Facebook button in the sidebar to see more Sew Day photos.
