Notice to sewing machine owners!!!!!
I am currently overwhelmed with new eager students and am in urgent need of sewing machine donations. If you have a functional machine that you no longer use, I would be grateful if you could donate it to my little Happy Hippie Sewing Club. The machine should be in working condition, although we can handle minor adjustments such as cleaning or oiling. Please drop off your donation at the Hippie Pocket in the basement of St. JAMES Church. For further information, please message me. Your contribution would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!
