FARMINGTON SEWCIALITES

Every Tuesday is the meeting of the Farmington Sewcialites. What is a Sewcialite and how can you become one? I’m glad you asked. A Sewcialite is someone who loves to sew with a group of other sewists and quilters. To become a Sewcialite all you have to do is show up to Quilted Corners on any Tuesday with your sewing machine and a project to work on. This is a come and go setting, open from 9-5:30. You may bring your lunch or snacks (only drinks with lids, please), or you may patronize the many restaurants in the vicinity. Plan to sewcialize with your friends, make new friends, and complete numerous projects. If you need help or advice, you need only ask. If you need a project to work on or fabric or notions to finish a project, we will have those available. If you would like to use one of our classroom machines, just call ahead to reserve one, as we have a limited number of machines available for class use. We look forward to having you join Farmington’s newest, most exclusive sewcial club!
