The Sew ’ n Such Club is back in full force with over 50 members. Quilting, sewing and crafts are a way to express ourselves through our creativity while enjoying the camaraderie of each others company and learning new skills. People are excited to see and receive the things we create, even if they don ’ t always understand how much time, materials and love were poured into the making. One important thing is that our quilts will outlive us by generations. The ORPS Sew ’ n Such Club has again adopted the Shelter From the Storm, Coachella Valley ’ s only domestic violence shelter, as a focused charity. The Shelter From The Storm is grateful for all we have done for their mission of keeping families safe.
