TOGA (Treadle On Gathering and Academy)
This four day event begins Thursday, September 29, 2016 with a great day of fabric shopping at the Bargain Shack in Poteau, Oklahoma. Meet us in Mena and we'll lead you there. The next three days will be held at the event room at Janssen Avenue Florists, right across from Janssen Park in beautiful downtown Mena, Arkansas. Users of people powered sewing machines gather to exchange information, food and general merriment. Bring your treadle, hand crank or other vintage sewing machines and show us how you repaired it and what you sewed on it. Click on the button to join our yahoo group for more information.
