Community Sewing

​
Volunteering is Part of Our Mission
Community service is a part of the American Sewing Guild mission, and is equally a component of the MASG mission.  
We are continually looking for ways in which our sewing skills and resources can benefit the community... and pass on our skills to the next generation!

2026 COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT

MASG's Community Sew will be held on April 17, 2026, at Daie Heights Presbyterian Church, 5501 University Ave, Madison (map). We will be making blankets and tote bags for WayForward (formerly Middleton Outreach Ministry). There will be two time slots; 1-4pm and 6-8pm.
