I've had a secret...

..that I'm pretty thrilled to be able to share.

I'll be teaching at Sewing Summit 2013 this September!

It's a conference focused on sewing, with a few classes on blogging stuff as well.

I'll be teaching a hands-on class making your own simple blouses!
They'll have a classroom of sewing machines to sew while you're there!

Hopefully this will be a good class for anyone who would like to sew garments for themselves,
especially if you're like me and started with skirts but was a little nervous about tops.

There's going to be instruction on the main simple blouse and different variations
(placket, sleeve length, maternity, collars, sleeveless tank, etc) to take with you as well.

I've taught a few sewing classes in the past few years and I really love it
 (even to teens with zero sewing experience) and am just so excited about the chance to
share my simple blouse pattern (a complimentary paper pattern will come with the class)
and interact with other sewists out there!

There's many more awesome teachers and classes in case you're not interested in mine!

I'm really excited to meet some of the friends I've been able to get to know through blogs,
eat, and learn more about sewing.

You can register this morning (April 16) starting at 10am MST.

Last year tickets sold out (only 250 available) within a few hours.

Hope to see you there!
