Online Sewing Class!

This winter we are bringing back virtual classes! Driving on icy roads on winter nights is no fun, so take a class online, from the comfort of your own home!

This class is entirely synchronous - Elizabeth will be there with you every step of the way, with a 2-camera setup to show you techniques up close.

Just like our regular Continuing On class, you can bring any project you want!

Friday Fun Fact

It's spooky season! Halloween is right around the corner. Personally I love dressing up in costumes, and costumed parties were popular in the olden times too! 

In the 19th century, costume parties were popular for Halloween, New Year's Eve, or any time! What's interesting is seeing how the costumes of the day still reflected the fashionable silhouette of the time. Check out the fashion plates of "fancy dress," the Victorian term for dress-up costumes.

In the 1920s, Halloween's popularity boomed, and we have lots of pictures to show us what kinds of costumes folks were wearing! See even more at the blog post!

Are you dressing up this year? Did you sew any costumes? Let us know - or better yet, send us a picture!
