Volunteer Sewing
Looking for a way to use your sewing skills to help others? Join us for our regular meetings to make dignity gowns for breast cancer patients (all gowns are donated to UPMC McKeesport and UPMC Monroeville).
There is no fee for this class/meeting, but we’d love if you’d register so we know how many people to expect! We do limit attendance based on space and machines (some will work on sewing and some on cutting)
For more information on the organization we partner with and regarding where the gowns are donated, the Jodie Matta-Dillinger Cancer Resource Center, click HERE.
Recommended Experience Level: Beginner – through Advanced.
Must have basic sewing machine experience and know how to thread a sewing machine. You should be fairly comfortable with the sewing machine and with basic construction techniques, but you do not need to be an expert! Basic understanding of garment construction helpful, and understanding of pressing and sewing hems, simple seams etc.
