Hey there, sewing enthusiasts! What a whirlwind of creativity we’ve had these past few months! In March, we dove headfirst into National Quilt Month with gusto. From every corner, near and far, our community came together to stitch up a storm for our inaugural Chicago Sews banner. The results? Absolutely breathtaking! As we bid adieu to March, let’s take a moment to revel in the magic we’ve woven together. Keep your eyes peeled for the official unveiling of our stunning quilted banner at a later date!
If you missed the kickoff, fear not! Our previous post has all the juicy details to kickstart your quilt block journey. And let’s not forget our March Newsletter, shining a spotlight on some of our talented resident quilters. Huge thanks to Sew on Central for graciously hosting Chicago Sews and providing the perfect space for our creative endeavors!
April saw us gathering once again, this time to celebrate Earth Day with our ‘Make, Mend, & Refashion’ event at the NorthTown Library. Armed with our trusty machines and heaps of scrap fabric, we transformed the ordinary into the extraordinary, one zippered pouch at a time.
Special guest alert! Sew Anastasia graced us with her presence both online and in person, sharing insights and inspiration. Catch the exclusive interview in our newsletter, and don’t miss out on her in-person classes and tutorials!
