Mother's Day Retreat Day - High Tea Edition!

Why sew alone when you can be amongst friends?
Let's sew away the day together!
This sew day celebrates Mother's and Caregivers, but you don't have to be a Mom to enjoy this day with us. Enjoy a boxed high tea lunch and a gift of a flower.
Enjoy this sewing day retreat with other sewists / quilters by bringing your sewing machine, tools and works in progress or your hand sewing projects.
On this sew day retreat, Cathy will teach you to make a small tray to hold your notions or other small items. This 30 minute activity includes the supplies and you will still have the rest of the day to work on your own sewing projects that you bring with you.
