For Sale: Sewing Machines
Sheila Quinn has let us know that she has a friend who wants to sell her Bernina Artista 180 Sewing and
Embroidery Machine, Bernina Bernette 334d Electronic Serger and Horn Albany oak cabinet. The sewing
machine is a Bernina Artlink/CP Special Edition 2000 model. She says she only used the sewing machine a
couple of times before circumstances in her life did not allow enough time for her to use it. It comes with a lot of
extras. She would like to sell all pieces as a total package although she would consider splitting it up.

Sheila also has a Singer Featherweight in excellent condition for sale at a reasonable price. If anyone is interested
in seeing these items or want any further information please call Sheila Quinn at 772-287-0001.

Sewing Bee at Cambridge - Wednesdays from 12pm - 3pm.
The sewing bee at Pinelakes Gardens has been cancelled and instead the Guild is urging members to assist the
Cambridge Bee in their charity efforts.
The Sewing Bee at Cambridge is held weekly on Wednesday at the Cambridge Clubhouse from 12pm - 3pm. Contact
Gail H. at 772-545-0958 or windwater599@aol.com.
The Cambridge Clubhouse is at 1802 Constitution Blvd., Hobe Sound. Constitution Blvd. is 3.5 miles south of Cove
Road on the east side of Federal Highway. There is a large sign showing the entrance to Cambridge. If you are going
south on Federal, turn left onto Constitution and take the first left turn into the clubhouse. Bear around to the right side
of the building (as you face it) and come in the door farthest from the front. Knock on the door, if it is locked. The
fourth Wednesday of the month is dedicated to community quilting initiatives, especially those of the Guild. They also
work to provide items for the Veterans’ Hospital in Ocala. Come, enjoy, and bring a lunch.
