About

Sew Gay Club is TQNC's monthly sewing skillshare at the Medford Public Library, 111 High Street in Medford, where you can learn to use a machine or bring a project and finish it. Bring that top you've been meaning to crop, the pants that need hemming, or the Halloween costume you've been stuck on. Machines and supplies are provided, a few experienced guides are on hand, and it's open to everyone regardless of skill level.
