Modern Domestic

There's a new sewers paradise in town...MODERN DOMESTIC. If you love to sew, but don't have a machine, if you are dying to use a fancy Bernina, if you want to buy a fancy Bernina, if you want to learn how to sew, if you want to learn how to sew underwear, if you want to be part of an awesome sewing community...COME TO MODERN DOMESTIC. Not only does MD have an awesome list of learn to sew and advanced sewing classes, but they offer drop in sewing for a small fee. This small fee allows you to come, sew on a fancy Bernina, use the BabyLock serger, spread out your project all over without worrying about a cat or kid, and use the tables to cut or trace your pattern...trust me, it is a dream space. If you really want to have some fun...come to the Friday night sew-cial. What a great community of sewers we have in our neighborhood! Thanks L, M, and G for opening up such a great space! You are inspiring so many with the opening of MODERN DOMESTIC.
I feel so honored and excited to be a part of Modern Domestic. I taught my first class there a couple of weeks ago and it was a dream. The space is amazing. I can't wait until my next class! My next class is the grocery tote from the I (heart) Patchwork book. It is the cutest grocery tote ever...it folds up into it's own little pocket when you want to store them in your glove box. The seams are all french seams, so that heavy bottle of wine won't tear open the seams. This was an awesome skill for me to practice and it would be an awesome skill for YOU to learn. If you are interested in this class...contact MODERN DOMESTIC.

Too bad airplane tickets to Portland are more than $15.00, I would for sure be coming for the fun...It does seem awesome. A play land!

Looks like it will be a big hit in the community. We may want to put a special order in for the gorcery tote bag. . . We will be talking soon. Love Dad

I LOVED my class I took at Modern Domestic. As a VERY novice sewer (aka, never sewed before in my life), it was a wonderful experience.

Just to let some of you know, there are great places like MD in your communities. Make Workshop in NYC, and Whipstitch in Atlanta. Have a look, there might be an awesome sewing studio just around the corner (they will not have Autumn teaching though, she is ours alone).
