NEIGHBORHOOD GROUPS and
PROGRAMS |
The Olympia Chapter has a Neighborhood Group (NG) for
any interest - quilting, machine embroidery, garment fitting, garment
construction, computer aided quilt top design, creative projects for hearth
and home and more. We have at least two different Neighborhood Group
meeting each week so it's easy to find a group to fit your sewing passion
almost anytime you want. Below is the list of active Neighborhood
Groups along with their schedule for the remainder of the year.

HERE for a 1-page list of
groups and meeting times and places.
Feel free to drop into any NG meeting. Wear your
name tag and earn 25$ in chapter bucks!
