March 2012

Our next meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 13. We will meet casually for dinner at the Holiday Ham in Germantown at 5:30 p.m.

The program will be taught by Rose of the Lace Cottage. She will be teaching on collars for our Basic yoke dresses. She will teach an easy way to make a ruffled collar. If time permits, Jane will teach the scalloped hem. No supplies are needed.

Those of you who have wee care gowns out, please finish them and bring them to the meeting.

As we are all preparing for Easter, take a look at Easter preparations of the past!
