The Central CA Machine Embroiderers Group

This group was started to give machine embroiderers in the Central California area a source for educational events and classes as well as sharing tips on our facebook link. We encourage all machine embroiderers in the Central Valley to join our group! It's a great way to keep up with new techniques, refreshers of "classic" techniques, and a bunch of just fun things that are going on with machine embroidery today. We welcome your questions and suggestions for Upcoming Meetups.

Your organizers are Chuck and Kathy Bruce and we are absolutely passionate about machine embroidery as well as all the education that goes along with it. We personally invite you to join in on some of the fun that we have with machine embroidery!

Hope to see you soon,

Chuck & Kathy
