I taught the Shell Hem for the French Handsewers SAGA Guild today. It is my own Guild.
The meetings are instructional and each one will feature a different stitch or technique to use on the Wee Care (or Threads of Love) gowns. I think it is a great program idea. At the end of this series of programs, each person will have a gown to give to the hospital.
I have given you the instructions for stitching the Shell Hem here.
I am a believer in Thimbles!
Someone in class did a very good job!
I get to see many pretty sewing items in classes.
I love this garden!!
And what a special treat to be given a set of vintage Pillowcases!
I use pretty pillowcases. I sleep better on them!
This is a beautiful crochet design.
And they came to me nicely wrapped AND freshly laundered and pressed!
It was a very nice day.
