Thank you for visiting the shop and for bringing along your friends! |

We are busy getting our new shop ready for you! |

Everything (and then some) is moved over from 264-268 Arnett Blvd, to our new space at 438 West Main St. We are deeply grateful for all the volunteers who helped prepare the new space for our arrival and pack up everything in the old space. They helped clean the Arnett rooms for the next tenants there and move all the furnishings and materials to West Main. And this week (and next!) they are helping us unpack and set up our new West Main space. It's beautiful! And we can't wait for you to see it. If you want to be a part of our effort, email volunteer@sewgreenrochester.org. There's still a lot to do! Thank you! Please join us for our fabulous Grand ReOpening Party on November 12 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. There will be music, food, puppets and laughter. And, of course, all the nerdy crafty goodness you've come to expect from us at SewGreen@Rochester. If you've made something out of items purchased at the shop, bring it! Wear it! Show it off! We'd love to see your work. And let us know if you'd like to help out with the party by bringing food and/or entertainment! |

Don't see Measure Up!/Fit It on our calendar? We still offer it! If you wish your clothing fit you better than it does, or if you want to stop sewing and/or knitting garments that you either swim in or can't quite close at the front, the first step is to obtain accurate measurements of your body. If you'd like your own body map, call 585-328-2642 or email info@sewgreenrochester.org, and make an appointment with Georgia today! |
