Embroidery club and such

Hello,

Boy! It seems that Vancouver has two seasons, winter and construction! I headed off from the shop to go to VSM (which is a story in and of itself) and there was construction every where we went. Getting down to Fabricana is a chore now too.

However, we are gearing up for Embroidery club on September 27. I shopped for my fabrics on friday. Here is a peek........

The project is beautiful and great fun, I am working on putting it together today. In between relaxing in the summer air and reading.

I just finished reading the 3 book series by Stieg Larsson. Wow, I have never been so captivated by a book before. The Girl With The Golden Tatoo, The Girl who played With Fire and The Girl Who Stepped On The Hornets Nest. Honestly I could not put them down. They are big books and I read all three in about 3 weeks. For me, that is amazing! I have passed them on to friends and family and they all say the same. When I read a book I always like to choose an actor for each of the main characters, I chose Natalie Portman for Salander and Daniel Craig for Blomkvist and funnily enough, Daniel will be Blomkvist in the upcomming movie production. The original films are subtitled and made in Sweeden. I want to see them first. Then maybe I will see the Hollywood version when it comes out. Great read, I highly recommend it.

Off to the Sewing room to do my Jenny Haskins Sharman's Garden homework.

Still trying to find stuff in my sewing room

Okay, its getting critical now, I have to dive in and clean out my sewing room. There is stuff in there that I know I have and now I need it! My friend Tara in Indianola, Iowa loves it when I clean my room as it usually results in a box of stuff sent off to her. She uses almost everything I send her! I love that!

Hi Everyone,




I am so sad to have had to let go of my class room this month. It was just costing too much and we were not doing enough classes to warrant that kind of expence. It sure was a cool space huh?

However, we have worked really hard to make sure that your classroom experience is a roomy and comfortable one. We will not be doing any more Saturday classes. All classes will be Sundays Mondays and weeknights. Sewing/Embroidery classes will not be affected.


Annemarie Ewart starts working in the shop on the 18th of this month. She also has some wonderful quilting and stitchery classes coming up too.


Check out our website to see what new classes are coming up.

I am also, have been for days now, trying to make sense of my sewing room, seems I have outgrown it. Now, chances of getting any more space are slim to none, so it means that I may have to part with some of my precious items to make room. Who am I kidding, I'm just going to fill it up all over again.
