Our Monthly Meetings
We meet every month on the second Wednesday. The only exception to the rule is August, when many of our members seek cooler climes, and it is too hot (even for us) to sew!
Every month we spend an hour or so on business things, and then we may have a demonstration, or a talk, or just time to sit and sew. We are always amazed at how much members manage to achieve in just a month, so our regular 'show and tell' session is always a revelation.
Lunch is a social part of the day - we look forward to seeing you.

February 2020
Our February Meeting will be held on Wednesday 12th February at Santa Maria Bowling Club - come along at 10.00 am for a 10.30 start and remember to bring along anybody that might be interested in joining us. After the formal part of the meeting, we will be discussing the use of our leftover materials and one of our members, Lesley Thompson, will be showing us how to make new material out of scraps, also known as 'Mile a Minute'. Bring your scraps of material and your machine with you so that you can try this out. No special theme for the afternoon so bring along your UFO's to work on, including your sewing machine if you wish, and take advantage of the other members to discuss your current projects and ask for any help that you might need. We will also be discussing the final arrangements for the 'Introduction to Patchwork and Quilting' day to be held at the end of April to introduce any potential new members to our craft.
Any non-members that are interested in seeing what we do, please feel free to come along, but please contact us using the contact form before you come so that we can ensure lunch is booked for you.
