Craving some company and conversation while you work your fiber craft? Bring your current project/supplies for some social stitching. All levels. Meets the first nonholiday Wednesday of each month.

Whether you cross stitch, crochet, knit, embroider, needle point, quilt, or something else, you are invited to stop in as you join others with similar interests, exchange ideas and helpful hints, and meet new friends. Let's get together and bond over our hobbies. Bring your own lidded beverage of choice (no alcohol).
