February 2020 Sew Day Recap

It was a sunny day at the International Quilt Museum! 

Members worked on their own colorful projects ranging from blocks, to improv pieces, bags and repurposed shirts. The best parts were learning from each other and enjoying each other's company!

We had a small meeting with mentors/mentees and brainstormed. We're hoping to expand it to more members at February's meeting. More info to come.

Here's our show and tell from the meeting:
