SEWING CIRCLE
Sewing Circle is made up of a group of talented ladies who get together to work on individual work, community projects, and shared workshops. This gathering provides opportunities for both beginner and seasoned quilters as we socialize, challenge, and support each other while we work our way through various quilting projects. Our community projects focus on the construction of "Duggie Snugglers", Quilts of Valour. Victoria Quilts, decorations for our donated Christmas tree to the Festival of Trees, and other requests from the community. Our "sit and sew" days and workshops vary from year to year.
We meet at the Wray House in Kawartha Settlers’ Village from May 1st until October 31st. The back room of this beautiful log home is set up for our group sewing. The natural light and the electrical lightening seems to have been designed for our needs. We bring our lunch and stay for the day! We have use of the washroom facilities and the kitchen. On colder days, the furnace and our high level of energy keeps us warm. On warmer days the excellent ventilation and our flexibility to adjust our hours, maintains our comfort. Our library, located in a beautiful china cabinet in the dining room is a wonderful resource centre. We have cutting boards and rulers, irons and ironing boards, donated fabric, some sewing supplies, and two basic sewing machines for your use. Please come out and join us and bring your personal sewing machine and preferred sewing supplies.
The Sewing Circle Planning Session for the season May – Oct. 2024 will be held immediately following the April Guild meeting on April 9, 2024. The schedule of days for “sit and sew”, community sewing, and workshops will be established at this meeting. If you are not able to attend, but wish to participate, please share your ideas and requests before April 9th with Judy Cameron at info@settlersvillagequilters.ca
