Hand Sewing and Lab Time for Summer
***
Sharon Coker is hanging up for May and part of June."In our latest book, we present five complete patterns. In genderless sizing from XS- # # we illustrate the eternal relevance and versatility of traditional workwear shapes and detailing. These simple everyday garments are clothes not fashion, living outside the fast and careless, trend-led landscape"...
I have 3 seats left in the last minute, June add-on of Hand Stitching.
***
Claire will be here this summer also for Sewing Lab-help for the hard bits.
This has turned out to be a good idea. Sarah said she was frozen and Claire was amazing and fast at getting her over a really scary parts of her quilt coat project so she immediately signed -up for June.
Such a confidence builder!
You can find her June, July and August for in-person help.
I want to thank my Spring teachers for making our lives richer. I have invited them back for fall- stay tuned!
Sharon Coker from Napa hangs on the walls until the second week in June.
Wow! is the response I'm getting for her clothing, (and of course, "is that for sale?"). Such a testament to a relentless focus.
Thank you, Sharon.
Come see her influences, some hand printed cloth as well as some self drafted designs.
