Yes, we have two sew-ins on Tuesday, July 15. You read that yesterday we awarded 50 quilts (40 from LOLQOV and 10 from Huntley's Gazebo QOV Quilters) to the National Guard members who returned from Afghanistan last year. Well, there are 130 members who returned. I have never promised quilts before knowing we can do it but yes, I've promised to come back to cover the rest of the members. So, we have work to do!! And what timing:
We return to Sewing Etc., Yorkville, (Rt 47 and Cannonball Trail Rd) for our regular sew-in. NOTE: We now have the storefront next door with a much bigger area! Jane has what you'll need if you're looking for a new project. You'll need your sewing machine and quilting tools.
A new-to-us location in Arlington Heights begins its debut Tuesday at Linda Z's. That address is: 1030 E Central Rd, Arlington Heights and their phone number is: (847) 394-4622. We begin at 9:30 and go until 3 (ish). Again, sewing machines, and quilting tools.
Also, if you have old phone books looking for a place, can you start putting them aside for our string projects. So, fill them bobbins and let's do it!
