Hey this is a great idea. Matter of fact I host a sewing party, known as "The Funny Farm Sew-In". We typically have the sew-in every few months or maybe every quarter. I invite my sewing friends, and non-sewing as well, we eat a wonderful dinner prepared by my husband and drink wine then go to the sewing studio & sew, knit, embroider and sew more until folks decide it is time to go home.
These prove to be very helpful and outrageous fun to boot! We take a brief break for dessert (everyone brings one dessert to get pass the husband at the front door) and get back to our sewing. Each session I try to plan a 'make-it & you take-it project sew we can do new techniques; but nothing formal; that would ruin our 'free nite out sewing'.

I encourage folks who have the room and time to do one of these and you will be surprised at the results. Of course take pics of your projects too.

This looks like a great read, warm tea in the bed with PJ's on & reading this makes me want to sew all the more . . . . .

I just finished reading a book based on the roaring 1920's & the fashion is so flattering; this book makes me want to try out the fashions listed and attempt some of the techniques.

I am keeping my threads crossed that I win!

Something so very simple, can look so very Gorgeous. Kenneth is wonderful. You will make Martha look like the hired help! Go for it!

This was extremely helpful; I especially love the method used with the steam-a-seam to help with stabilization of the zipper before it goes in the seam. I have very flimsy fabric & this will make it much more easier to install the zipper.
