It's Me Made May and time for another sewcial and handmade clothing swap! Here's your chance to share some of your garments and get something new. Handmade accessories are also welcome. You do not need to bring anything to participate. If this is full, RSVP on Pie [here](https://getpie.at/ov5HEJhn). Go through your closet, see what you no longer wear, and pass along them along to another sewist. It's also a great time to meet other people who sew, discuss sewing plans, projects currently underway, or get tips on a sewing challenge you are facing. Please label garments with the size, pattern, and measurements (bust, waist, hip). If your garments are not taken, you will need to take them back. You do not need to bring a garment to attend. Garments that are not chosen will need to go back home with you. You can bring any leftovers to the next garment swap. **\* Feel free to bring snacks to share. Sparkling water will be provided.** We'll have four rounds of choosing, five if there are a lot of attendees/garments. If you brought: * One garment, you can participate in the first round of choosing, * Two garments, you can participate in the first two rounds, * Three garments, you can participate in the first three rounds. * For the fourth round, everyone can take as many garments as they want, including people who did not bring a garment. **AGENDA** * 10:30-11:15 am - Set up tables, sewcialize, place garments on tables, set out snacks, drinks * 11:15-11:30 am - Announcements and introductions - everyone gets a chance to introduce themselves * 11:30 am-12 pm - Choose garments, group photo & sewcialize! Feel free to wear something you made to this meetup. :) During the introductions, you can mention the pattern and fabric for one of the things you made. To get emails about special discounts for Bay Area Sewists Meetup members, be sure your Meetup settings for “announcements to members” is turned on.
