We are a local  group making, dresses and shorts for charity, meeting on the first Wednesday of every month in the home of the founder member. Our aim is to encourage and enable volunteers to join together to have a fun time, to chat, make new friends and share sewing skills  whilst making clothes for children in areas of poverty where we have links, ie. orphanages in India, Africa and Cambodia.  Many of these children have never received new clothes.  
Inspired by and loosely based on “Dress a Girl Around the World”
