Creative Workshop
The custom-built Creative Workshop is over 1200 square feet and offers every lady plenty of space to work on whatever project they’ve brought with them. Each person has their own workstation that consists of a six-foot table, plenty of power supplies, a deluxe office chair, and a Fiskars 36 inch self healing cutting mat. For the quilters, there is a King size design board covered in flannel so that you can arrange your perfect quilt.
The Creative Workshop is also equipped with four additional square folding tables that can be used to play cards, mahjong, work on a puzzle, or whatever your group might like. There are several other tables for snacks, a full size refrigerator for drinks and filtered water machine to stay hydrated!
