Do you know Rashida yet? You should :) She's the designer behind one of my current favorite fabric lines, Washi, and also a fabulous author. Her new book Zakka Style
has even inspired a Sew Along that I'm super excited to take part in.
Lindsey of LR Stitched and Amy of Don't You Know Who I Am? are organizing a sew-along of every single project in the book, and they asked me to join in the fun! There are 24 projects and we'll be sewing right through the book from start to finish.

The sew along starts Monday April 2nd with the first project in the book and will continue through Monday September 10th with a new project introduced each Monday. Each blogger will sew a different project and will be sharing their finished project and inspiration with you. I'll be doing the Orchard Path Tweed Pouch and finally tackling my fear of hexagons, which I'm really looking forward to!
The projects in the book are small and a lot of fun to stitch up, so I sure hope you'll join in the fun. You will need a copy of the book to participate. You can find a copy at Amazon as well as many local quilt shops.
There will be some fab prizes offered throughout the sew along and we are so thankful to have the support of Stash Books, Aurifil, Zip It, Robert Kaufman Fabrics, Timeless Treasures, Cloud 9 fabrics, Fabricworm, and The Intrepid Thread.

My book is on order - this should be fun. Way outside of my comfort zone since I've only done quilt alongs but I'm up for the challenge. Thanks for being part of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! I have the book and love flipping through the pages for inspiration. I'll confess I haven't made any of the projects yet though. This might be the kick in the pants I need!!
ReplyDeleteHooray! My book should arrive in the mail today.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lot of fun!
