September Sew for 30 - 2016!

September is National Sewing Month in the United States.  We all lead very busy lives and finding time to do the hobby we love can be difficult so I'd like to encourage everyone to "Sew for 30 minutes" everyday during the month of September.   It's amazing what you can get done in little increments of time!  A seam here, a press there and before you know it - you have a brand new little something!

The goal of September Sew for 30 is to MAKE TIME to do what you love and by gosh, by golly, let's have a little fun doing it this year!  As sewer's, we are naturally creative people and being creative with our time counts too.  Let's showcase what and how we are squeezing in that hobby time!

How will you spend your 30 minutes a day?  Here are some ideas:

You get the idea - have fun with it!  Here's a recent pic of me on a shopping spree at Mill End Fabrics in Reno, Nevada.
