St. Mark Quilters

Craft Night
Craft Night began a few years ago when a couple of us thought it would be fun to gather for an evening of working on handwork projects together – our own individual handwork – just doing it at the same time. It has blossomed into a wonderful evening of a nice dinner followed by sharing projects, learning a new trick here and there, making prayers shawls and Head Start hats, and lots of laughter.
We begin 2015 with a gathering on Monday, January 26 at 6:00pm in the parish hall and invite you to join us. It’s always a nice dinner, pleasant company, and a chance to work on a project as well.
