If you participate in both Sit and Sew days, you will be able to leave your sewing machine, etc. at the
shop which is locked and alarmed.

On the last evening, the 28th, we plan to have a dinner with Santi for which folks will be asked to
register in advance so we can make reservations.  This will be at one of Fredericksburg’s nicer
restaurants and an opportunity for those who wish to relax and enjoy Santi.   Dinner will be Dutch Treat.

Our website will have hyper links to Fredericksburg area tourism bureau web sites should you decide to
bring the entire family for a weekender.  This would make a great vacation for you and for your family at
the same time.  

Be sure to wear something each day with a Hatched in Africa design on your clothes to surprise Santi.

We will open each morning at 8:00 am to give you time for coffee and bagels before classes begin.

To reiterate:  If you attend both sit and sew days and fun day, the fee will be $285 rather than $300.

Please feel free to call if you have questions.
