Additional Info:
The Martha Washington Chapter meets on the 3rd Friday of each month at 10:00 am. Our location varies depending on which library is available... typically rotating between the Burke Centre Library and the Richard Byrd Library. Please reach out to Lisa for the exact location. This is a generous guild and we look forward to introducing more to smocking and fine sewing as we make new friends. All are welcome!!

We begin our meetings with a bit of social time as we set up the tables and chairs, do a brief business meeting including "show and share", and then work on a mini project or class. Our two service projects are supporting Wee Care, by providing bereavement gowns and blankets to a local hospital and providing and dressing dolls which are given to families in need during the holidays via ECHO, our area food bank.

Can't find a chapter near you?

If there is not a local SAGA chapter in your area, the SAGA board would like to encourage you to consider establishing a new chapter. An informational packet on how to start a new SAGA chapter is available by contacting the Chapter Coordinator at chapter@smocking.org. This packet will be sent to you via your email address. It only takes 3 people interested in smocking, needlework, and/or heirloom sewing to start a chapter. All members of a local chapter must belong to the national Smocking Arts Guild of America (according to SAGA bylaws).
SAGA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

For more information, please contact: chapter@smocking.org.
