February Meeting and a Sit & Sew!

Hi everyone! This Thursday Night is our February Meeting and we'll be having another fabulous SEWING NIGHT!! We've been getting so much done at these after-work sew sessions and they really are a fun way to hang out with other crafty ladies!! These nights are also super inspirational! Last month Caroline finished a quilt top in like a night and Lisa brought SO much cute Show & Tell! It was a lot of fun so bring whatever you've made in the past month or so to show off and get us all inspired, and bring your next big project (or start one!) and lets get some serious sewing done!!

 

We meet from 6:00-9:00pm

(Feel free to come at 5 and shop around a bit! We have a lot of NEW goodies in the store!)

 

 

Like Bekko by Trenna Travis!! Some GORGEOUS Home Decor Weight Sateens in fabulous colors and graphic prints perfect for any home!! I'm thinking of making another Gum Drop Pillow in one of these cool prints!! You can take Caroline's Class later this month and make one too!

 

 

 

 

This month, we'll be sewing with all the Sit & Sew ladies who decide to stay late or come late! If you don't have to work this Thursday, feel free to SIGN UP to come at 10:00am and stay for a WHOLE DAY of sewing! OR you can pay $15 for Thursday & Friday! If you'd like to spend Valentine's Day sewing your heart out, then come SIT & SEW with us!! See you all Thursday!!

Come Make a Mess with Us...

Well we just had our first Sew Fresh meeting of the New Year and let me tell you, we all had SEW much fun! There were some new and of course fun and familiar faces! And we all got lots accomplished!!

Lisa had some super cute show & tell to share with us! Love this little half apron she whipped up! So cute and flirty! Such a fun way to show off a few great prints that you love seeing together! And how sweet would it be to pair a simple apron like this with a cool cookbook for a fabulous housewarming or bridal gift?

If you're an apron addict like some of us, check out Sally Brown's wonderful vintage style Apron Class happening in April! We are having an apron-themed event the same day as the class, so go ahead and mark your calendars for April 20th!!

Liz busted out this adorable skirt in like an hour for the Handmade Fashion Show on February 9th!! Loving the little shot of color at the hem! Such a simple detail can really make a handmade item look anything but! That gorgeous gray print is from the Lily Belle collection from Art Gallery Fabrics and I must say that if you are looking for a print for your fashionable creations, their prints are SO luscious and have a wonderful drape. You can really FEEL THE DIFFERENCE when touching their beautiful fabrics!

Caroline even finished an ENTIRE Valori Wells quilt top with one of our NEW Novella Quilt Kits!

      

We have it available in Driftwood & Spice colorways and its finished size is 60" x 80".  These prints look so wonderful together so if you are in the market for a simple yet modern quilt for a gift or yourself, then grab one of these fun and easy kits and get creating!!

Some Laser-Cut stitching was going down as well as some fresh and funky quilt blocks made from Good Morning! We had so many different projects happening all night, it was fun seeing what everyone had to work on and the messes they were making in the process!

 

These sewing nights are seriously SEW MUCH FUN and its especially nice to be creating with other inspiring ladies! We LOVE making creative messes and want you to come make some with us! SIGN UP HERE!

And if you're itching for a sewing day before next month's meeting, you should totally join us for a day (or two) of fun, fellowship and of course, sewing THIS WEEKEND!! We're opening the Classroom up so you can spread out and create to your heart's content! $10 for one day or $15 for both! Come for one day or two and make a sewing retreat out of it! Fort Worth is a great town for a weekend getaway! Lots of great restaurants around to go get lunch or bring your own from home! We have a full kitchen that you are welcome to use!! We will provide water and tea to keep you hydrated all day long! We plan to hold these every month & you can NOW SIGN UP to Sit & Sew in JAN or FEB!!
