All,

Just a reminder that we will have the Knot Just a Pouch workshop after the Guild meeting on Saturday.

If you did not get a kit I will have extra on hand for new sign ups and anyone who did not get one in September. Please bring any additional fabrics you want to include from your stash along with a fat quarter to use for lining. I will have some extra fabrics on hand in case.

Below is also a reminder of what to bring.

Supplies to Bring

1. Sewing Machine – don’t forget your power cord, pedal, and (if you have one) an extension cord.
2. Neutral Thread – something you’re happy to use for piecing and topstitching.
3. Scissors – for trimming.
4. Rotary Cutter & Small Mat – handy for squaring things up.
5. Ruler – to cut your panels to 10 ½” x 6 ½”.
6. Zipper Foot – helpful but not required. If you normally sew with a straight-stitch plate, swap it for your standard plate so you can move your needle position.
7. Marking Tools – bring whatever you prefer (chalk pencil, fabric marker, painter’s tape, etc.) for quilting lines or guides or freestyle it.  The choice is yours.
8. Fresh Needle – no special type needed, but a new one makes everything sew smoother.

We’ll have irons available in class. If you love having your own small iron and mat at your station, feel free to bring them along.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me directly and I am happy to help: mgsengstack@msn.com

Our meeting and workshop will be at Southside Baptist Church but we will be in a different building. Please park in the lot to left of the church (the entrance closest to DeRenne Avenue) and look for the covered entrance. There will be signs to guide you to the Old Chapel. If you are taking the workshop you can leave your sewing machine and supplies in the classroom off of the welcome area.

There will be signup sheets for the December Luncheon and for the Fall 2026 Retreat. Don’t forget your Name tag and if you took the vest workshop bring your finished vest for us all to admire.  See you Saturday!!
If you have questions please call or text Theresa Sapp at 912-656-3605.

Those who plan to go to the Georgia National Fair on October 3, 2025, please meet at the Lake Mayer Community Center at 6:30 AM.  The bus will promptly leave at 7:00 AM.

Good Morning Everyone!

It looks as if we have dodged another possible hurricane….yahoo!!

Have a wonderful day !   Joanne

There is maintenance happening at the community center at Lake Mayer and the bathrooms in the park are closed until Saturday. We have decided to cancel the pillowcase sewing on Friday (tomorrow). There will be portable toilets by the basketball courts for whoever wants to sew today or tomorrow. Thanks, happy sewing! Debbie
