Wine & Needles

So we will have a busy, fun October. The Inner Sunset Street Fair followed by the very first Wine & Needles. Then at the end of the month is of course Halloween. Busy, but fun. I've been thinking about this "sewcial" for quite a while, but I always ran out of energy. I AM busy and tired all the time. But, I know this will be fun and good for everyone. At our first meeting we will make a fabric pear and a pumpkin. They will lift your holiday spirit for any corner of your home. I made these pears a couple years ago and have a pattern for it, but I will try to add pumpkins to the gang, or maybe someone can share the pattern? Anyone is welcome if you want to sew, eat, drink, and chat with other sewers and crafters. Hey, it's a free sewing lesson too. This will be a very casual meeting and I didn't want to use the word "RSVP" to make you think that you really have to reserve your spot. It is not essential to RSVP, but I just wanted to have an idea of how many people are showing up so we could set up the place accordingly. Along with your materials and tools, you want to bring something yummy to share with others. Oh, I can tell already that this will be so much fun. So bring your wine (or something else) and needles and let's have fun.
