Sewing for Good

The Hudson Valley Chapter of the American Sewing Guild invites all sewing enthusiasts to the Holy Mountain on Saturday, May 9. Bring your sewing machine and any cotton fabric you have. We’ll gather for a Sewing Day Retreat to make fabric makeup bags, tote bags, and shopping bags, which will be donated to a local food pantry.

Check it at 9 AM, and we’ll start sewing at 10 AM.  Lunch will be served at 12 noon.  You’ll have time to wander the grounds, visit chapels, and the Graymoor bookstore, too, before we wrap up around 4 PM.

  Dolly carts will be available in the parking lot to roll your machine into the building

GPS 40 Franciscan Way, Garrison/Philipstown, NY 10524. Drive to the top of the mountain, where there will be a parking lot on the left for the Welcome Center.   Enter under the Graymoor sign and take the elevator to 5.  Take a left and a right out of the elevator to the Dining Room, which is our meeting space.
