Dress A Girl – Sew Dresses
5th Year of our Dress a Girl Project
April 19, 2022 at Cathy’s Sew & Vac
Message from Laura Burghardt: If it LOOKS like we had a blast at tonight’s “Dress-A-Girl” sewing night, it’s because we DID! And also got adorable garments made for some lovely little girls somewhere in the world.
- The third year of our chapter’s involvement with over 160 dresses made and given to girls in third world countries. This year, we’re considering the Bahamas.
- Beginning in February, meeting two to three times at Cathy’s Sew N Vac to construct simple sundresses
- If you sew, bring your sewing machine to put together quick and easy dresses. If you don’t sew, join us to cut and iron.
Coordinators for this project is Cyndi Murdoch & Laura Burghardt
