Sewing Cafe

  Sewing Cafe meets 2 to 3 Monday evenings per month in the Portland store.  The main course is sewing but it is garnished with laughter and fun.  There is a small group of loyal participants and a steady stream of "one-nighters."  On any given night, I might be providing instruction in quilting, mending, decorating, and dress making.  Everyone learns from each other and I learn from my "students." I haven't yet written this up with photos because it is not really an event or a party, but a basic class.  However, Sewing Cafe is offering something special for those who are serious about learning to sew or want to further develop their skills.  To see examples of what happens at Sewing Cafe, click on the photo album for photos taken June 15, 2009.  If you'd like to join us,  check ou the website for dates and call Sew Portland (797-6700) to register for class.  If you need a sewing machine, let us know in advance and we will gladly provide one.
