<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 80012, member: 44&quot;]&gt;I donated to local sewing &quot;circles&quot; - Park District programs that teach the needle arts.&lt;</p><p><br /></p><p>That is a good idea.

I do suspect there are sewing clubs in the area.

With the carrying case usable, more or less still in tack, it is certainly portable.
