[SustainableTompkins] Invitation to join SewGreen e-mail group

[Wendy Skinner]

You are invited to join a new Yahoo email group, called "SewGreen." 

It has been set up to be: "an open membership list for the sustainable sewing community in and around Ithaca and Tompkins County, NY. List members are encouraged to use this list to share ideas, organize activities, and network with others who share the same goals of ecologically and economically sustainable fashion and craft sewing."

Open membership means anyone can join -- so please forward this to friends -- and messages are not filtered or monitored. The Yahoo site archives all messages. Email attachments are allowed.

You may join by going to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SewGreen/ . Click on the blue Join This Group button at the upper right and follow the directions. You can choose to receive SewGreen emails as they arrive, or to receive them as a "daily digest." You may also choose to access the group's messages on the web only.

I will be using SewGreen to send out announcements and news of sustainable sewing activities, eco-fashion contests etc. You may send sustainable sewing/needlecraft news and info to me at ws at twcny.rr.com for compilation into an occasional omnibus email, if you like. That would cut down on the number of individual messages.

Thanks to Charlotte Williams for setting up the list!
