Free Stitch Please come and use our classroom! Bring some friends – pin a quilt – work on a project – spread out! We have made a point of scheduling these sessions after classes and clubs so that students have time to finish what they are working on, but anyone is welcome to use our classroom whenever it is not scheduled for a class or club.



Priority Quilts for Alzheimer’s Research We have been collecting quilts for Ami Simm’s Priority Quilt program. I would like to have someone organize a sew-in sometime during the session. Please see Carrie if you are interested in getting involved in this worthwhile program.
