Hey Seams and Scissors, readers! Whilst perusing the booths at Quilt Market we stumbled across an amazing opportunity that we had to pass along to you, our loyal readers. Ever hear about The Sewing Party? It’s the first time this event has been introduced and we’re beyond excited about it. Let’s get down to brass tacks about what it is…
-
The Sewing Party is the FIRST ever online DIY event in history.
-
Registration costs only $40 and gives you access to 30 online classes, handouts, and project instructions.
-
The party starts on November 8th! All classes will become available at that time and 90 days afterwards. This means that if you scheduled all of your yearly doctor appointments on November 8th and cannot rescheduled them, you’ll still have a grace period to access all of the class recordings and supplementary materials!
-
Here is where you register!
It’s all online everyone; that means you don’t have to leave your house! I’m sure tons of our readers have yearned to run the wild aisles of CHA, Quilt Market, and the likes, but dishing out several hundreds for tickets, airfare, and accommodations is a lot. Not to mention you have to exchange your pajamas for real clothes.
The classes available are from some pretty top-notch companies as well; ones we absolutely love:
We know; it’s wildly exciting. As soon as we stopped by The Sewing Party booth we didn’t want to leave. In fact, our AllFreeSewing and FaveQuilts representatives wouldn’t leave for quite some time… until it was clear that we should move on. Take a gander at this informational (not to mention painfully adorable) video for this awesome event.

I have quilt blocks that I sent to my family to decorate for my son and his wife. I would love to put these together for them for Christmas. Some of the family have already passed away so it would be extra special.
I would absolutely love to win this!!! I don’t leave the house much since I’ve got a bit older and how lovely to be able to sit and learn a new hobby or improve on a existing one from the comfort of home! Magnificent!! 🙂
