Fort Collins Sewing Collective

Hi, friends! I've heard that MCR is calling for fabric masks, and I think many other local hospitals will soon approve these, too. Would you and your little (or biggish) people be interesting in joining me (online) in sewing some masks?

These would be SUPER simple to sew for your tweens/teens, for adults, or for littles with some adult assistance.

If so, would you mind reading my comments for a series of questions? Comment below the option that best describes you.

Local mommas - would it be helpful if I posted some videos for your kids to sew along with at home? I’m thinking simple hand sewing projects for littles, and sew-along machine projects for teens (all free, of course)?

Let me know if this would be something your kids would like to do while we’re all stuck at home!

It’a been far too quiet on this page lately! How are you sewists? Any particular class wishes for the coming months?

This sewist’s mission makes me happy:

This Woman is on a Mission to Teach Sewing Across the Country She's a real Martha in the making.

Every day of sewing camp is our favorite, but there’s something about day three that’s simply magical.

Everyone has learned enough basic skills to know what they want to make AND how to make it. Each student ends up gathering their supplies and getting in the zone for a while as they create just what they’ve imagined. There’s music in the background, and students are quick to jump in and help each other tie off a string or thread a needle or find a button if I’m busy.

These little makers amaze us every time.
