we only have meetings when something needs to be discussed. Otherwise it is all about meetings. We have a few charity projects we do each year and we all bring our machines and sew on them. Sometimes the more talented girls teach the newer girls techniques or we all make a project we like in our own colors. Our meetings are more hands on than meetings now. It is a lot better. Sometimes we bring in an instructor and do a weekend retreat. We have sew-ins once a month that anyone can attend. Sew-ins usually start on Friday afternoon and go to Saturday night. We bring snacks to share and bag lunches. Usually go out for supper or order in. Depends on the crowd that day. The cost of the hall is split between the # of girls sewing that day.
