I wanted to share something for all you folks out there that sew. My friends Judy of Rick Rack Thread Therapy and Jennifer of Sis Boom have put together a video for this adorable dress........
This dress here is killing me........
I may just need to rent a daughter so I have a reason to make this dress as I don't think Carlos or Andres will wear it....no matter how cute it is. I adore that fabric...the color combination is perfect.
Anyway, here is all the information you need. Just click on the picture and it will take you to all the info......
This is what is included in the whole kit and kaboodle........
- 1 autographed copy of the book, Girl's World: Twenty-One Sewing Projects to Make for Little Girls;
- 1 downloadable Mary's Fancy Sash Dress how to sew video demonstration;
- 1 downloadable project instruction sheet w/step-by-step color photos (PDF);
- Supply list;
- Access to the student-only Fabric.com Jennifer Paganelli/Girl's World Online Class Store where class supplies (and more) will be available for purchase at 25% off Fabric.com's already low prices; and
- 1 hour live chat with Jennifer Paganelli (Dolin O'Shea will join in to answer any sewing questions concerning this project )
I'm personally going to sign up for the class just to be able to chat with Jennifer. I want to ask her questions like "how did you get so talented?" and "do you dream about the perfect color combinations in your sleep?" and "Can I please move in your beautiful house in Connecticut?" I figure I'll have a good 5 minutes before they kick me out of the chat room.........
Jennifer Paganelli is the creator of Sis Boom fabrics, which has over eight lines with Freespirit and a line with Sunbrella. Her work has been featured in national publications including Real Simple and Country Living. Girl's World is Jennifer's first book.
I'm also excited that they are having sewing expert Dolin O'Shea to help out also. I was thinking maybe if I was really, really nice to her, she could show me how to wind a bobbin properly on my new sewing machine........
After spending 15 years in the fashion industry as a pattern maker and technical designer, in 2008, Dolin decided to leave the corporate world behind to pursue more creative opportunities. Dolin has honed her couture dressmaking skills and discovered that she can be a writer. She lives in San Jose, with a wonderful husband and two very silly dogs. Everyday is different and she wouldn't change it for the world. Visit Dolin's blog Lulu Bliss.
So anyhow, I thought this sounded like a pretty cool class for all you people who like to sew. And even those who want to learn more about sewing and making a dress.
I'll see you in the chat room.......before I get the boot that is! Talk to you soon!
