November Sewing Class Week 3

This week our November Sewing Class made the Kitschy Kitchen Apron from One-Yard Wonders and I just love how the ladies apron's turned out. Kara made a pretty one with black fabric with cherries all over it and Lindsay made an adorable Christmas themed apron! These ladies are becoming more confident in their sewing skills and it shows! I love to watch them grow and expand their knowledge and I hope that this is a hobby that takes off for them. Sewing is a very rewarding skill to have because you can see your progress until you have a completed project and really the sky's the limit on what you can create!

Can't wait for next week's class, we will be making pj pants and sadly it will be our last class of the session. I will be adding some more sewing classes after the first of the year and thinking about adding a class that would continue these new found sewing skills!

October Sewing Class Part 2

I taught my second night of Sewing Class at Make and Take Craft Weekend and the ladies were rock stars! We first finished the reversible tote bags they had started last week and then we rocked out a half apron. Besides a little trouble with one of their machines, they were awesome! So fun to watch people figure out how to sew and those bits of material come together to create something fun and useful.

Cute colorful apron!

This was my example apron I made to show them. 

The reversible tote was taken from MADE, I made a bunch of these for teachers gifts at the end of the school year last year and I love seeing the teachers carry their things in them! The apron is the Kitschy Kitchen Apron from the book One-Yard Wonders. The material is stuff I have had in my stash for a long time with the intentions of doing a skirt for my oldest daughter but never got around to it.
