Housewives and Needle Books at the Pond House

It’s not what you think. This housewife was a portable sewing kit carried by ladies going to sewing bees and soldiers out on campaign. 

Sarah Reinke will show how they were made and what they might contain. 

Make your own needle book to keep your needles from disappearing into your pincushion.

Free program. All materials provided. No registration required. Drop in any time during the three-hour event.
