New classes for ages 20+

Great news! I have started lessons for older girls wanting to get their crafting skills on! Most girls are taking one on one classes with me so they will be sewing in no time on their own! I'll be posting soon and am looking forward to classes next week with my Sew Creative gals! Please e-mail or call if you want more information or to sign up! Sewcreativegirl@gmail.com

First Class!

We had so much fun today learning our machines!  Maggie, Molly and Julia are naturals.  They caught on so fast!  They all learned how to wind their bobbins, load their bobbins, and thread their machines! Then we practiced the straight stitch which meant they were ready to tackle their first sewing project- bows!

  My sweet friend Ginni showed up to pick up two of the girls (sisters) and saw my camera sitting out so took some photos.  I meant to do that but we were too busy sewing!  We missed Julia in action so we will have to make up for that next week. :) Be prepared for photos girls (or remind me!)!  Julia used my machine that I learned on and was quite good!   

All 3 girls really impressed me!  I felt like such a proud little sewing teacher!

Maggie’s machine didn’t want to cooperate so she ended up using mine so they stayed a few extra minutes so they could finish their bows.

Maggie did a great job going with the flow and the fact that she can jump on to another machine and operate it so well only means one thing: She was born to sew! She wanted her bow smaller than mine, which I love a girl that knows what she wants, and it turned out so cute! See her picture above! 065

Molly was my precision girl.  She had lots of questions which I loved because I am such a questioner myself.  When you learn how to sew the right way, you can take on bigger projects sooner- so Molly will probably be better than me before long! You go girl!

Julia, Maggie, and Molly each made a bow similar to these!  We are looking forward to next week!
