Whew. That last month of the summer crushed me. But as of yesterday Belly is back in school and Moop is back at daycare and I am back in my routine. So glad to be here.
I've got a bunch of finished projects and tutorials and teaching moments to share with you from the six weeks. I'm excited to start writing (and reading) again. In the meantime, I have a bit of fun for you.
I taught two week-long camps with my friend Nancy Sidman of Miss Nancy Schmancy at The Little Bits Workshop in River Forest The first camp had 12 girls, age 9 through 11. The second camp had 11 girls, age 9 through 13 (the big range led to an interesting social dynamic). In both camps, a bunch of girls with little or no sewing machine experience sewed a garment and a tote bag in just one week and then walked the runway. It was crazy fun! You can watch a video of the first runway show here and see photos here.

That is so cool, Lisa! Thanks for sharing! Those girls did an amazing job, which means you and your friend did an amazing job teaching them!
