The Garment Gals Neighborhood Group plans to continue meeting thru the summer, but a poll will be taken at the June and July meetings to determine attendance for the next meeting. Please know that the projects identified below are tentative and could change according the membership discussions/wishes. Please contact Judy Longacre for questions regarding topic or meeting changes.
June 19 - T-shirt challenge. We will have a session on making a t-shirt. We will discuss stabalizing shoulder seams, making a no-ripple hem, neckline finishes, and any other techniques used to make a good looking t-shirt. The challenge will be decided upon that day, but most likely will be to have each of us make some form of t-shirt and present it at some specific Garment Gals meeting (to be decided upon by the group).
July 17 - "My biggest mistake and what I learned from it". Hopefully you still own it and can show us how you overcame the problem, or didn't, but learned from it.
August 21 - Linings. We will need to pin this down a bit. Skirt, pants, jacket - all have a lot we can talk about, but we may want to focus on a limited amount.
September 18 - Placement of plaids. Bonny once volunteered to talk on this subject and we hope she is still willing.
October 16 - Underpants. Several people were interested in this topic, but we will have to have someone willing to show us some lingerie sewing techniques.
November 13 (2nd. Tuesday) - Belts and perhaps other accessories.
December 18 - Pot luck lunch. Topic, if any, TBD, but fun and non-stressful.
