Sewing Circle @Central

It's happening again!

Come to Central Monday night November 18th from 5-7 and you will find a room full of sewing machines. Plus as an extra bonus, we will provide fabric from Nooworks on hand to play with and keep.

This is a self-directed opportunity to use our sewing machines, but we will have a few volunteers who can provide simple assistance.

You can use a machine for one hour (more if there's no one waiting).
