Sew So Straight!
Our Kid’s Club groups met on Saturday, and the project of the day was sew simple. But, as most experienced sewers know, keeping your seams straight (when straight really matters) is much harder than it sounds!

Organizing Dad’s Bar-b-q
The Kid’s Club sewers were here again this past Saturday, creating a great project to store Dad’s grilling “stuff”. This project was challenging, because of the size of the fabric pieces, the number of layers to keep straight (pockets!) and the topstitching required. Our girls are improving every month and the results are evident in [...]

It took almost as much time to line up the colorful ribbons in an eye-pleasing pattern as it did to complete the sewing. These socks are [...]

Kid’s Club
Our Kid’s Club Sewing Club has been such a huge success in its first months. We’ve grown from one session to two and have to expand to 3 groups in March to make sure all of our young sewers have a spot! This month’s project was a pillow, and the girls did a marvelous job, [...]

Finally…A Class Schedule
It’s no excuse, but it’s been so busy lately at the store that we’ve had little time to get together some classes for this winter. We’ve got a start, and hope to add more to the schedule within the next few weeks. One addition to this year’s class lineup is our Kid’s Club classes, set [...]
