April is National Serger Month!
April is National Serger Month!
This Neighborhood Group is a mix of experienced and new sewers who come together to have a good time working on small projects. Typically, we sew a project we can finish during our two-hour meeting. We love sewing and we love to share ideas, so the show and tell part of the meeting is inspirational
We take turns leading a project. Occasionally, we do something different like take a field trip or go on an expedition to an uncharted sewing frontier. If we are making something that a member is not interested in making, she will often come anyway, just for the chance to hang out with sewing friends and see what they are doing. We are very lucky to have an ideal spot for our meetings—the Midway library where we have a room flooded with natural light, and plenty of tables and outlets. We would love for you to join us.
Next Meeting : March 19, 2023
Easy Does It Bag
For our March 19th meeting we are going to make the Easy Does It bag available at byannie.com. Diane Dickerson is leading the group this month. This pattern was chosen because it is available as a free pdf download.
Supply list:
Three pieces of coordinating fabric (can be fat quarters).
If you download the free pattern you will also be able to print a fabric layout page and watch some great instructional videos. It seems that all this is only available if you have and probably not be able to finish this bag in one two-hour period, so we could either do it for two meetings or finish at home.
It would be great if you had the bias binding cut and the 18 x 21 quilt sandwich quilted before you came. Annie has an excellent video on making bias binding strips.
I hope to see you at our March meeting. I think this will be a useful and practical bag to have.
