Wednesday, August 20, 2014


Happy Wednesday! I wanted to take some time today to talk about my Fall teaching schedule and to share a promotion with you.

As I mentioned last month, The Sewcial Lounge is moving! The big day is rapidly approaching, and they need your help! They are running a fun Sewcial Tote Promotion with different levels of involvement. The feature product is these hand screen-printed tote bags! There are discounts and goodies to be had as well, so make sure to check it out! You can get all the details on the promotion here, and you can buy your tote bag in store or online.
