Hello Sewing and Fibre Arts Enthusiasts,
As we as a chapter and as a country continue to experience
remote learning and interfacing, I wanted to take this time to mention a few sites
and options I have come across from our sewing community suppliers, and other connected
fields who are trying to satisfy a need during this challenging time.
Many of our local and national advertisers are doing Zoom or
other on-line learning platforms. So
please check out any of the following websites to stay connected, learn
something new and explore your creativity:
- ·
ASG at www.asg.org. There are fabulous educational videos as well
as sewing and embroidery projects, past Notions and Blog postings and an eBook
on Drafting a Sloper (for everything from tops to bottoms). Don’t forget to check out the other perks
from ASG memberships.
- ·
The Quiltbug at www.quiltbug.com
for various fundamental sewing or project-based classes.
- ·
The Albany Sewing Machine Center at www.sewandvacny.com for both virtual and
on-line classes.
