Membership

The Spirit of Saint Louis Smockers was founded in 1985 by a group of talented needle-folk with the common goal of fostering friendships and service through the needle arts and heirloom sewing.

 

Meeting centrally in Crestwood, MO, we are an active and enthusiastic affiliate chapter of the Smocking Arts Guild of America with events and activities taking place year-round. We meet monthly to share our makes, teach each other new techniques and skills, plan sewing retreats and workshops, and eat snacks (when we're allowed). Nothing is better to us than welcoming new members to take part and share what we've learned to another generation. Simply put, we love getting together to do what we love.
