I'm so excited to be offering my first official sewing retreat! We'll have our own private cottage at one of Gainesville's loveliest B&Bs. Interested in joining us? Spaces are limited so be sure to register today to guarantee your spot.
Sewing Retreat: Make a Clutch
Join us for a special afternoon sewing retreat at the Magnolia Bed and Breakfast in downtown Gainesville! We'll use a downloadable pattern from IThinkSew.com to make a Grab and Go Clutch. This little handbag is perfect for carrying all your essentials or for keeping things organized inside a larger purse. The bag gets its roomy shape from a few well-placed darts, so you'll learn helpful tricks for installing darts. Plus you'll also enjoy tasty refreshments, courtesy of Magnolia B&B. Mimosas, anyone? It's the perfect way to spend a relaxing Sunday afternoon!

I love these clutches - so cute!! I am so disappointed that I will be out of town for this...
I'm really excited :o), perfect way to start the new semester!
Kim, this is a great idea! Do you mind if I share this with my email list? I think a lot of them would be interested as well.
Oh, I really hope I can scrounge up the money to do this in time! Sounds so awesome. Can we bring our own sewing machine if we want?
Lindsay: Drat! It would've been great to see you.
Nelia: Yay! I'm excited that you regsitered.
Katherine: I'd love it if you shared this with your email list. Thanks!
Joa: Yes, if you decide to register then you'll need to bring your own sewing machine and supplies. Hope you can make it!
Sewing retreat! What a sweet idea!
I would love to do something like this in the future on something really basic, I've never sewn a thing on a machine in my life!
Cheers!
