DAVENPORT, Iowa, July 17, 2016 – The MCC "Sit and Grow" group invites the community to attend "Quilting 101". Classes will be held on July 25, 26, and 27 starting at 5:00 pm each evening and will end by 8:30 pm. The group meets in the social hall of the church located at 2930 W. Locust Street in Davenport just across from the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds. Participants are encouraged to attend all three classes as there will be a series of related lessons focusing on the basics of quilting as well as a variety of block patterns. If participants are not able to attend all three classes or stay for the entire time, they should please come when able as there will be members of the “Sit and Grow” group that will be more than happy to bring them up to speed. Regardless if one has never operated a sewing machine, or if it has been awhile, all skill levels will feel at ease in our diverse group that includes novice quilters as well as those with years of experience. If you have questions, please contact Clayton Peterson at petersoncc@sbcglobal.net or Jennifer Robb at jennarobb0430@yahoo.com. There is a suggested $5.00 donation that covers all three classes.
