Sit & Sew: January 21, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. (In Person)
Join fellow guild members for a few hours of sewing and conversation. The guild provides tables, extension cords, ironing stations, and a cutting table. You decide whether to bring handwork or your sewing machine.
Not sure what to work on? The Quilting for Others team will have pillowcase kits and quilt top kits, as well as various tasks such as ironing washed pillowcases, sewing binding, or sandwiching quilts.
Bring a beverage, snack/lunch, and a chair cushion.
Note: We'll switch to Zoom if the weather is inclement. Check the Nimble Fingers website or your email for last-minute changes before heading out.

Céleste Compion, "Mending is Good for the Soul"Don’t throw away those old clothes! Boro them! Even members who don’t love hand-sewing will be inspired by Céleste Compion’s presentation on creative mending. “Boro” refers to much-mended clothing and textiles, using the Japanese Sashiko techniques. Céleste will demonstrate the stitching and share examples of creative mending -- and include a trunk show of shweshwe fabric. Details and Zoom link here.
