Electronic Sewing Resources

By Nancy Daquino

What our National organization is doing on-line to support our Chapters and Members:

  • Chapter Newsletters: You can read chapter newsletters from all over the U.S. on the website, ASG.org.
  • Weekly Blog: ASG publishes a weekly blog post on Fridays that can be delivered to your email. Past posts are also on ASG.org. This is the replacement for the printed newsletter that we used to get by mail.
  • National Neighborhood Group: This is a Zoom webinar and is free of charge to ASG members.  Watch your emails for more information.
  • Special Offers: These can be found on ASG.org. Various sewing vendors have provided codes that members can use for discounts.
  • Social Media: ASG Headquarters has an Instagram, asgguildhq. More and more local chapters have become active Instagram as well. Some examples are Nashville, TN (asgnashville), Atlanta, GA (asgatlanta), Denver, CO (asgdenver), and Plano, TX (planoasg), among many others. We are considering this option as well.

If you have any suggestions for other sewing electronic media that we should feature, please let us know!
