Our meeting this month will be at the Fargo Air Museum on September 17th at 6:30 pm. We will be helping some of their staff members make padded hangers for their uniform collection.  The museum is supplying all materials and Max, the museum’s curator, will be there to provide instruction. This is a no-sew method that we helped them develop in 2023; it involves wrapping wooden hangers in layers of batting and cotton stockinette, which provides more support to the fabric of heavy uniforms. We will not be hosting our usual show and tell due to the change in venue, but I hope you are able to join us for some community service!

This month’s meeting will take place on May 21st. We will be traveling to in Arthur, ND. She has a new space at 510 1st Street: “The Big Red Shop building located behind the gas station.” Shop owner Mary Beth Engelke is a longtime member of the FM Modern Sewing Guild, and we are excited to see her new space! We will organize drivers & cars at that location at 5:30 to carpool, and leave at 5:45pm. Please email [email protected] for the carpool location.
