Still Waters Community United Methodist Church

about nurturing needles

Nurturing Needles was founded by a group of Still Waters ladies that wanted to support each other while creating items that could provide comfort to people in the church and the community. We have members who support the ministry by knitting, crocheting, needle pointing, card making, quilting, sewing, embroidery and jewelry making.

Nurturing Needles meets every Thursday at 6:00 pm. All are Welcome! If you are not able to join us but are interested in lending a helping hand, supplies are available to work at home! Please email Glennis or call her at 262-305-4782 for more information.

If you know of someone or an organization that has a need, please let us know!

SEW saturday 2017

At Nurturing Needles "Sew Saturday" on September 16th, our dedicated sewing team made 178 colorful pillow cases for Ryan's Case for Smiles!

A hospital experience can be terrifying and traumatic for both a child and their family. Ryan’s Case for Smiles helps with the stress and emotional impact of illness, providing whimsical pillowcases to give children an emotional boost and other resources and tools to help families better understand and cope with the experience.

join us!
