A relaxing, fun and creative environment for quilters of all ages and skills
Julia Deal / SEW Artistic Fiber Art Gallery
Julia learned to crochet from one grandmother, and knit from the other before the age of 8. From age 8- 16 she lived in Hong Kong, walking distance from “Fabric Alley”. With a good start from a neighbor, Julia learned to draft her own clothing patterns, and kept copious notes. Since the TBI in 2019 she has been working to recover her former level of productivity & enjoyment of sewing. Julia & Mary Ann have been pattern co-authors since 2016.
SEW Artistic Workshop & Classroom is at Piano Works Mall inside Central Creatives on the 2nd Floor.
Mary Ann Sprague / Mary Ann’s Makings
Mary Ann Sprague learned sewing from her mother in 4-H and crocheting from her grandmother when she was 8. She is always working on numerous projects, either following patterns, or creating something new. Her quilting took off after she learned to free-motion quilt on her Singer Featherweight, and most recently when she and Julia began designing quilt patterns together.
Fabulous February is back! Throughout the month of January collect a red or white sealed Fabulous February envelope for every $25 you spend. The envelopes contain all kinds of surprises from discounts and free products to gift certificates. Collect as many as you can and then, in February bring in your envelopes *UNOPENED* and claim your goodies.
Join us on the third Tuesday of each month, from 4-6pm to cut squares from scraps of fabric to send to the One Common Thread foundation to help women in Honduras make quilts to support their families. We encourage you to check out the website https://onecommonthread.org to get all the details and to see the beautiful faces of these women. We all have so many scraps that will never use and we love the idea of sending them to these women. If you cannot make the sewing night but still want to help, feel free to drop off precut squares, 2.5" & 3.5". Even if you don’t have scraps, we could use your cutting, ironing, and sorting skills. (Please feel free to bring a bagged dinner or some snacks if you would like.)
