This morning, our inaugural Sewing Basics for Kids class rocked the house! Julie, Lauren, Caroline and Chloe (now poised to take over the Dallas sewing scene) created the cutest little crazy "cat-bunnies" (as the girls named them) while learning some great techniques like sewing on a button, hand embroidery, machine applique, machine sewing, and stuffing. It was so much fun, and we can't wait to schedule more kids classes after the holidays. Stay tuned to your email newsletters for more info.

The CityCraft team LOVES sewing books. And we're especially excited about this new sewing book that just arrived for your sewing pleasure. One Yard Wonders by Rebecca Yaker and Patricia Hoskins is a delicious collection of  simple, stylish projects that can be made with just a single yard of fabric. Projects have a hip, contemporary flair, and most can be completed in a few hours. We can't wait to try the Scrunchie Bag (using our hip ribbons and webbing) and there are LOTS of great kid projects, like Leisure Suit Lap Dog, and kids clothing patterns. And, be still our hearts, a pattern for a doggie coat! (I have a feeling CityCraft Team Member Erin's cute little pooches are soon to be the most stylish in the metroplex.)
