Quilt Show: After a break of five years (thanks to COVID), the Trinity Sew and Sews are thrilled to bring a quilt show for your enjoyment on May 10, Friday from 4:30 to 8:30, and May 11 from 9:30am to 4:30 pm. Quilts will be displayed in the Narthex and Sanctuary.
The “Boutique”, which will be set up in the Narthex, will have many items for sale including quilts of various sizes, placemats, and a variety of handmade and quilted items. And …have a look at the fabulous items in the silent auction!
On Saturday, in the lower level we will have 3 vendors: KTR Sewing, Oma’s Fabrics and Ormcraft quilting supplies; as well as a Flea Market which will have lots of interesting goodies for quilters including a $3.00 fill-a-bag bin! What fun!!!
We hope that you will all come out to feast your eyes on the artistic workmanship (eye candy) created by the quilters in our group and quilters from outside who are displaying their quilts. Admission is only $5.00. And…if you come on Friday evening, you can visit us again on Saturday by saving your ticket stub!
A not-to-be-missed fundraising event! See poster attached – feel free to share with friends and family.
