    FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY -- We meet at the Petoskey Friendship Center from 1-4pm. Please  join us. There is lots of room to work; new members to meet; light refreshments; lots of tips and sharing and always a fun demo.

    We are always looking for folks to share a short demo. Please let Tresa or Jan know, if you have something you would be willing to share. It may be something practiced, to you, but new to someone else, we’d like to see it. 

    The Children's Community Service group meets to sew but quilters may also sew at home. Deliver finished quilts to the coordinator; Shirley Nunes  (231) 675-9849. 

    The quilts are given to local hospitals and our Women's Resource Center for children up to 18 years of age.
