I hope this email finds you well and brimming with creativity! From brand-new classes designed to hone your skills, to an exhilarating recap of our recent Day for You event, and not forgetting the fresh Shop Hop catalogue (filled with fun articles, a peek at the fabulous themed fabrics, and 6 patterns!), there's something for every sewing aficionado in today's letter and at Treadle Yard Goods!
But first-- have you seen today's Treadle Make? Treadle student Dana made a big batch of aprons recently for gifts and included some cute custom labels! I could sure use a new one... between cooking, cleaning, painting, and patchwork mine is kind of the Apron of Theseus.
May your gifts be just as treasured and useful, Dana! - <3, Emily

| If I sound flat-out tired today... I am. Saturday's Day for You was the most social engagement I'd had in a while, and I must've spent a quarter of my alloted battery life for the day just telling Kat (my wife) how much I liked it! (Look... I'm a homebody.) I can't encourage you enough to register the next time we have A Day for You on offer. The gift bags alone are worth it, you'll meet great people, and you'll come away with endless inspiration! I've finally started sorting through the FOUR HUNDRED (!!) photos I took-- here's just a few! |
