Mother/Daughter, Grandmother/Granddaughter Fashion Sewing Workshop Classes,

Mother/Daughter Grandmother/Granddaughter Sewing Workshops Dear Mother/Grandmother, It seems like all the moms, and grandmothers, that I talk to, remember when they learned to sew. Or, they tell me that they wish that they had learned to sew. I remember the hot summer, in Parkin, Arkansas, when my grandmother taught me to sew. And, the rest of the summer, my other grandmother helped me make 6 pairs of shorts to wear to summer camp. This is when that I knew, that learning to sew creates lasting family memories. Our Mother/Daughter, Grandmother/Granddaughter workshops create memories, for your family, that will be shared for generations to come. Announcing the fall, 2012, Mother/Daughter, Grandmother/Granddaughter Sewing Workshops. We provide everything you need to experience a wonderful morning, learning to sew, with your daughter/granddaughter. Join us, and create a lasting, learning to sew, family memory.
