Thank you everyone who attended sewing machine spa day. Special thanks to his Lordship Owen who cleaned, oiled, and did some serious unsticking of machines. We had at least 10 people show up with machines. I think the sewing machine maintenance was great and I hope to persuade Owen to have another sewing machine spa day. Also, the Saturday sewing was pretty popular, so I plan to have more Saturday sewing events. Stay tuned for the next Saturday sewing.

Fencing to start at 3PM 2/9
Sorry for the late notice, but due to a scheduling conflict the crossover muster at Broken plow will be starting at 3 PM, not 2PM.
Practice will go until 5:30, so there will still be plenty of time to fight.
