What is the Little Piece of Mind Quilt Shop?
This is a private entry workshop room with a bathroom, a kitchenette, T.V., tables, chairs, couches, and a great vibe for meeting together to work on postcard projects, share league materials, focus on league work, watch webinars together, host an informational presentation, set up an information table in the parking lot, a member book exchange, whatever you want it to be! It will be BYOB and snacks to share. Informal, comfortable, and a way for us to gather, process what is happening in the election and be supportive of one another as we do the work necessary between now and November 5. And YES, we have a safe private space to gather to watch the election returns and experience history together.
