You asked for it ~ now we are doing it!

FREE Sew Day

Every Wednesday 

beginning

September 18

10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Bring your sewing project, whatever you want to work on, your sewing machine, rotary cutter and ruler. SKJ will provide the electricity, iron, and cutting boards.

This is what I need to work on

It's just a bit of quick sewing, I need to finish putting the sashing on this vintage quilt.  But I promised myself not to begin another project until I finished one.  Have you said that yourself before?? I bet you have!

I hope to see you next Wednesday! Bring a friend or come and meet a new one.

pillowcases

Did you know that we had 388 Pillowcases for Soldiers come through the shop last month.  It was such a fantastic feeling to see so many people work together to make these wonderful gifts to our military.

This is a picture of my son's Boy Scout Troop #745.  A bunch of girls and moms came out to help us sew that night too! I had such a good time and was so proud of my oldest actually sitting down at the sewing machine for the first time.

So if a 14 year old boy can make a pillowcase then so can you!  We meet the last Wednesday of every month for a FREE Sew Night at SKJ.  If you can't make it next week, mark your calender and make it for next month.

Does anyone want to come and sew with me in the shop tomorrow?

One of my shop teachers said that these little birds would look cute on the Christmas tree.  Thanks for the fun idea Lydia!

I have made these before for my little bird cage hanging by my cutting table.  Won't these be cute in red and green for my shop Christmas tree?  They would look cute in any color really!

Come into the shop on Monday, November 19.  And I will be sewing and stuffing these little birds.  You are welcome to sit and sew with me, just bring your own sewing machine.  And I will give you the free pattern too!

on monday

Starting this Monday, November 14, when you come to see me at my shop, you will be getting a little demo.  Each week there will be something new and fun for you to learn.  It might be something small or something big. I promise you will love it.

You also might find it to be the perfect little thing for you to make for Christmas.  A stocking stuffer, a hostess or an office gift.  I will also make a little kit for you to purchase.  If you like the demo, buy a kit and make your own.  Sew with love.

upcoming classes

This week is going to be a perfect time to come in to the shop and sign up for a class.  My calender is filling up for October.  And there is plenty there for you to sign up for.
