Girl’s Dresses for Malawi
At a past meeting, Mary Browning extended an invitation to the guild to participate in the second annual sew'in day for making dresses for girls in Malawi. A project sponsored by the Liberty Corner and Basking Ridge Presbyterian churches. Although there are no sew'in days planned for this summer, there is always a need and if you'd like to contribute you can make the dresses at home.
