As y’all know – I work a couple days at the fancy fabulous Waechter’s Fine Fabrics. What you might not know is that very soon I’ll be leading a great expedition into uncharted sewing territory, actually it’s just an informal sewing class/ studio/ community led get-together of the fancy fiber arts.

We’ll be sewing, and sharing ideas and learning things together.

We’re calling it the Next Generation Sewing Studio, but what I mean is, if you’re around 18-40ish and you want to sew, learn some things, share some things and foster a community of exchange and help – then come on by. It’ll be on a couple of Saturday mornings a month at the grand ole Waechter’s store. 10am until 12.

This Saturday marks our first gathering – a wee meet and greet from 10 till 1pm. I’d love to see you – and hear what you’re interested in and what worries you about sewing.

This class isn’t for formally trained sewists who really want to perfect their fill in the blank. Nope – this is an informal help-along.

Let’s get inspired! November 12th from 10-1pm Waechter’s Fine Fabrics 9 D Reed St.

And this (almost Friday) I’m grateful for the chance to meet and help others. I’ve had a whole passel of outrageously helpful women teach me, laugh with me and inspire me along the way.
