The Community Outreach of teaching sewing to teens at the Lakewood Ranch Library has been a huge success! They designed and made this flag quilt with Lois S leading the way. Their next sewing venture is Upcycled Runway and helpers are encouraged July 20-23 10am-12pm. Let Lois know you are coming on our GroupMe chat.







The Lakewood Ranch Library 250th USA Anniversary has included some of our members quilts in their display until Aug 2.
