We formed a sewing group some 20 years ago and we take what ever. It is sometimes a pain to take a machine, but we have such a good time, that time flies and you get a girls day/night out so the small stuff like having to tote stuff back and forth doesn't matter.. We call our group the Stitch 'N Bitch group and we get alot of both done. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It is therapy for free.

When I do not want to carry machine or do hand work, I just take my laptop, and work on a new design on EQ, then when I am ready to start a new quilt I have the design all all fabric needed on my computer to either print out or just view. And best Part I can get all the feed back on colors and design ASAP, just an idea.

I'd bring some hand work, lugging a machine for a couple hours is tedious, at least for me. Have you started a Hexie quilt, need to hand stitch binding on a quilt (I prefer hand stitching the binding after sewing on the machine) embroidery or just something small to bring along.

Hexis, yo-yos, apple core, binding for small quilts or table runners might work for this first time.

Our quilt guild has 5 machines that stay at the guild and it really makes it nice when we are working on a project. I also love my Featherweight to bring to classes. Just go and enjoy it. You could even bring a magazine that has some patterns in it and then get an idea what the others do. Good luck to you.
