Thimblelenas - Casa Amigas

One of the most popular Thimblelenas sewing groups in Sun City Vistoso is the Casa Amigas sewing group.  Members meet twice a week throughout the year sewing for the special children of Casa De Los Ninos and Catalina Community Services-Clothing Bank. Shorts, pants, tops, dresses, pajamas, bibs, crib sheets, drawstring bags and cover gowns are among the most sewn items.

Since the group started in 1999, more than 10,000 pieces have been made and donated to the charities.
