Ready, Set, Let's Sew!

Intermediate Sewing Class Update

It won't be long, and we will be well on our way to learning new sewing techniques and picking out projects.

The first day of class has been moved to September 1st. The other Tuesday classses are meeting, so we will meet and greet, talk about the semester, and hang out a bit. No need to bring your sewing machine or supplies to the first class - however, bring paper and a pencil to take notes.

We will do a "show and tell" on the first day we meet. Bring some of the projects you have made outside of class, something you may have put into your county fair, anything that you would like to share with the others.

I have been busy looking at patterns and purchased a few to show you. Not everyone has to make the same thing this year. We will learn new techniques together, practice them in class and at home, but you will have independent "lab" time to work on a project of your choosing - with teacher approval - of course :o)

Please refer to this site often. I will be posting tidbits of information about sewing, as well as things pertaining to class. If you have photographs of you and/or your projects, I would love to add them to this site. Just email me the photos and a bit of an explanation of the picture and I will add them for everyone to see.

As usual, email or call with questions. Otherwise, see you on September 1st!
