January 3--At my studio, as part of my monthly sewing series, we'll be doing a class on how to make patterns out of your old clothes so you can reproduce them, whether they're just your favorite pants that are falling apart, or a vintage dress you love the design of.  Call for more info.  

Each month, usually the first Saturday, I do a different sewing class.  They've included hand sewing, get to know your machine, how to use a sewing pattern, how to use fabrics to weatherize, etc. Let me know if you're interested in any.

Please come see me at my studio or one of the fairs, and come to a workshop for more fun. The way our economy is going, I really want everyone to know how to clothe themselves creatively and consciously.
