Sew Day Recap September 2023


We saw lots of familiar faces at Sew Day.  Some of us worked on name tags.  Others picked up supplies to make their name tags at home.  Several of us worked on our own projects, and several members dropped by to say hello!

 

Rhonda, Nancy, Collen, Sylvia, Elisa, and Jennifer Mc (not shown) working on their projects at the IQM.

Pieces of Nancy's latest pattern, and her Featherweight.



Liz, Jennifer v D, and Kristy visited.

Jeni worked on some hexies.  (And yes, there were tomatoes.)

Sarah joined us.
