Historians, Madison Pastor and Sammie Sunderhaft, will take pictures of the Club throughout the year and create a scrapbook filled with fun sewing memories. The club is led by advisors Julia Wood and Beth Ward.
The girls are looking forward to beginning and creating some wonderful outfits. In a field trip to JoAnn Fabrics in Hudson on May 13th , members will choose their fabrics and patterns to begin their projects. With weekly meetings in June and July, the members will have time to complete their projects in time for the Geauga County Style Show where they will model their completed projects. The Style Show will be at Notre Dame Education Center on July 18th. Finally, the members will also model their projects at the Great Geauga County Fair Style Show on Monday, September 4th, in the Jr. Fair Building.
