Hello all!
I hope you’ve had a lovely summer, what a lot of sunshine we had! I don’t know about you, but for me that means I have a sewing wish-list as long as my arm and my house is an absolute mess. On the plus side, for once despite living in Cumbria I feel like I’ve had a proper share of summer sun this year.
Now I’m feeling a smidgeon of summer nostalgia, when I can feel the ease of summer slipping away and the busyness of September and cooler weather fast approaching. I don’t mind as much as I might if it didn’t mean I can finally get some of that sewing wish-list made real though (the house can stay a mess for a bit longer..)
And to help you all keep hold of that summer lightness (and me hopefully earn a bit of extra money to buy autumn goodies,) I’m having a summer sale that starts today and ends on Saturday 6th September in the shop and Sunday 7th September online.
In the shop you’ll receive 20% off summer dressmaking fabrics - think lawns, linens, viscose, jersey. On the website I’ve selected 100 gorgeous dressmaking fabrics that are 20% off. And as always if you’re local you can shop online and select local pick-up so you don’t miss out on any bargains.
The latest round of dressmaking classes will be starting in the first week of September and are all fully booked - I can’t wait to meet my new sewing students and welcoming back the old familiars too!
I do have space on the next two Scrappy Sewcials - the Kawandi-style placemat or mini quilt in September and the Zipped Pouch in October.
Hexie Club also has room for a few new members if you fancy joining us once a month for some hand sewing.
And of course the Sewcials and Extra Spots run all year round and I’ve put the next batch online for you to book onto.
Hope to see you all soon!
