I'm excited about this Summer sew along event starting on July 1st. It's called "shorts on the line" and it's being hosted by imagine gnats, Designs by Sessa, and small + friendly
There are three reasons I'm excited about shorts on the line. One, there will be a bunch of bloggers sharing pattern reviews, patter remixes, and tutorials. Two, a flickr group will be filled with pictures from all the people who are sewing along. Three, I'm actually on the guest post schedule. Crazy, right? It pays to have cool friends.
I've finished my yet-to be-photographed project already, and I think it turned out really cute. We are planning a mini vacation in the beginning of July so I knew it would be best to get my shorts done early. Plus I needed lots of time to fix mistakes, just in case....
here is some info on the event, plus the guest judge lineup from Imagine Gnats:
for the first three weeks in july, we'll be sharing guest posts with shorts inspiration, tutorials, and pattern reviews. those sewing along at home will have a chance to be featured in our sewalong round-up posts the last week of july.... and some *great* prizes, including fabric, patterns, and gift certificates!
