Sew Sew Sweet is a very active group. This isn’t their first community service project, but their second, and they would like to do more.
The group plans on going to JoAnne Fabrics in Hudson, Ohio On April 6. Sew Sew Sweet would like to thank Ashtabula for holding an officer workshop at Ohio State University Extension office.
