I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving (or a great Thursday for my international friends). I have a project for the weekend. I need to make curtains for my family room. I'm using this English cotton from Gorgeous Fabrics.
I think I'm just going to make tab-top curtains. I like the clean look and they are easy. Soooo.... off to the sewing room. I want to try to get them done this weekend so I can clean the atelier in preparation for Susan Khalje's Sit and Sew next weekend. That's going to be so cool. It's 3 days of independent projects. I know many of the students, and I'm looking forward to meeting the folks I don't know yet. She's coming back in May of 2010 to do a full-blown 6 day Couture class. If you're interested, contact her (through her website). But I need to clean and vacuum so it looks less like a fabric bomb exploded, KWIM?
Happy sewing!

That is some cute fabric, Ann. Yes, make those tab top curtains and get 'em hung so you can move on to the fun stuff. I hope you all have a wonderful time with Susan. I am planning ahead to 2010 and trying to decide which workshop to sign up for. Everyone needs a couture project now and then. :) Heck, I would sew an A-line skirt just for the chance to learn.
Another Sit & Sew? You are so lucky! Give me regards to Susan, and have fun!
Do you have any tips on how to cut those huge swathes of fabric? I did one set of curtains for a friend and it was such a struggle to cut the fabric right, even with the assistance of a Dritz superboard. :(
can i just say how fantastic it is to see a collier campbell fabric on a sunday morning?
