Mommy and Me Apron class, scheduled for June 4th - this apron is adorable, and fully reversible, with a pocket on each side, and grommets at the neck and waist.
Weeks One and Two of Sewing Camp for Kids will find them making fun, fabric cuff bracelets with buttons, snaps, and basic hand stitches learned. Week Two - a strip quilted pillow for their room.Week Three is all about the purse! A girl can never have too many purses/tote bags, and you're never too young to start! Sewing Camp will go through 6 weeks of fun, creative classes - if you're local, and you've got a novice seamstress, Sew Obsessed has a few ways to keep them busy this summer (at least for about three hours, once a week).
And speaking about it being all about the purse, this bag travelled to Denver, to live with my Mom, this past Mother's Day. It will also be a class this July, but this one is all hers!
Big, roomy, lots of pockets - this one would make a great diaper bag, as well. As it is, she will probably carry home her winnings from the casino in Central City tomorrow.
Lots of sweet details on this, including grommets; big, gathered pockets; drawstrings; and loads of custom quilting. This was the fabric inspiration for the bag I posted last week. My Mom has always loved plaids...this was certainly a new take on the old watch plaid favorites! Papa Mama's got a brand new bag - HEY!
Hope your week is shaping up to include some creative "me" time - I found some of my own yesterday, and took a fabulous beaded bracelet class - the hardest I've ever taken. Hope to finish that up tonight while rooting on Hines Ward! Pictures to follow...not of Hines Ward, but of the bracelet...
What awesome camp items...I 'd want to take this camp, myself!

Wow, Tanya! You have been extra busy and what an amazing seamstress you are! Truly a gal of MANY talents! Sheesh! The sewing camps for kids sound like such a blast! I wish there had been something similar available when I was young! Maybe my sewing skills would be further accomplished by now! The bracelets are such a great idea...I may have to make one with the little gal I'll be babysitting this summer! Have a wonderful week!

Hi Tanya,

I love all you have been creating-the aprons looks so wonderful-and the colors are just fantastic- also the cufs for the kids are so funny and sweet- and the bag for your mother, looks beautiful.I love all the extra`s on this bag- and the wonderful fabrics.
Hugs, Dorthe
