Time to party, Oct 17th Tesco sewing club is 1 year old! Everyone welcome whether you’re a regular, a previous attendee, an attendee of another session or have never been before!
There will be cake. Whether it is fancy home made cake or something I grabbed from the shop depends how Thursday goes.

We don’t just make clothes, we make art!

House quiet, feels like forever since I had it to myself! It is bliss! I could do some sewing but I have control of the TV so could sit and find a box set to binge but what? Remind me in a couple of weeks that I spent the summer getting frustrated at them taking over my spaces and tell me to work.

What do you call yourself when referring to your sewing?
Why do you use that term?
I prefer sewer because it’s the term I’ve known since childhood but don’t care what others use (as long as they’ve not calling themselves a tailor unless they really are 😀). #sewing

This fabulous skirt made from a gorgeous wax print was finished this week, it’s this sewers first garment and she did brilliantly!
No time to put it on for a photo so it’s just being held up against the body but just look at the level waistband and neat pocket edges! #sewingclass #sewingteacher

This young adult has started making a bag at Friday Sewing club, a week ago we worked out the pieces it would take then last Friday we marked out all those pieces direct on the fabric (a cotton drill) and got them cut out and stacked ready to start sewing next time.

It’s not all dressmaking or quilting, fabric art being created here!
Collage is a great way to use up fabric remnants and odds and ends of thread. #sewing #fabric #fabricart #fabriccollage #sewingclub

It wasn’t just my help that was needed for this project, when it comes to patchwork and quilting we have a group member who knows far more than I do!
And what a wonderful result - a beautifully made quilt block storage book ❤️ #sewing #quilting #quiltblocks #sewingclub

The artist is at work again, website illustrations incoming I hope!
But then maybe I could get her to illustrate a book not just the website.
But what form should the book take? What would you want to see in a Bloomin’ Easy English Guide to Sewing? #sewing #learntosew #sewingbook #illustration

You’ve seen the ‘too busy socialising to get any sewing done post’ well here’s a ‘got loads of brilliant sewing done’ post! Last week we cut a half circle skirt with pockets & constructed the pockets, this week she’s assembled the skirt including her first ever zip and checked it fits. #sewing

Sometimes Friday sewing club is so much fun that absolutely no sewing gets done. None at all. Not a single stitch. The fabric came out, the machine was threaded, the chatting started and suddenly it was time to pack everything away again. 4 hours later! 😂😂😂😂
It’s a real sewcial! #sewing

I am loving this dress I made using a pile of fat quarters all in Winnie The Pooh themed prints. Very basic bodice for the top and long gathered panels for the skirt - anyone could make it! #madebyme #imadeit #winniethepooh #makeyourown

I’m going to say it again - you don’t learn to sew by making tote bags and cushion covers!
You really, really don’t!
There, I feel better for saying it out loud 😀. Now please tell your friends too. #sewing #learntosew

Don’t fill the bobbin every time. You get better at judging how much you will need but here’s half filled bobbin for a shirt and what was left on it when I finished which will be used for hand finishing so none wasted at all

What’s up? it asks. Well nothing much is the answer, but I have been giving the machines a bit of TLC so does that count? #sewing #sewingmachine
