In 2009, after looking for a group in the Fairfax City area for sewers/knitters/quilters, etc. and not finding one quite close enough, I figured why not start one?

Our group is for people looking to stitch with a group to complete all those projects we've started and not completed, and to gain inspiration from others on new projects.

Our group is very diverse in experience level, age, and craft. I think that has led to the most fun! No two meet ups are ever the same.
