bird workshop was awesome

July 29, 2011

Workshop
I spent Wednesday evening at Gather Here in Cambridge sewing birds with 8 lovely women (and one awesome 10 year old).  Gather Here is an incredible place. If you live in or near Boston I highly recommend a visit. I need to get back there for some hardcore shopping. Virginia and Noah have pulled together a beautifullly curated selection of fabric and notions and yarn.  And the teaching space in the back is super. A big wide table covered in brown paper. You just want to sit down and start in on a project as soon as you get there.  I can't wait to go back. I will be teaching a few more plush workshops there in the coming months.

Bird ornament
I have put the bird ornament I made for the workshop in my shop. Now it's back to writing patterns and taking pictures for the book.  Have a great day everyone!

    I enjoyed visiting that store last Friday. It was a super hot day, but my kids and husband hung out on the couch in front of the fan while I browsed.
