September brings so many wonderful things. This month is so full of wonderful colors. Orange, browns, and greens mostly. The month of September color is the Sapphire and the flowers are Asters
September is also the time when the parents get back into a routine because the kids go back to school. Some parent are sending their kids off to college which can be a happy but sad time. It is the harvest month for farmers or for just the people who have little gardens. It is the month for festivals. It is also the month for a lot of discounted items so make sure u search for the sales.
One of the main reasons I love September is that It kinda puts me back on track with my sewing.
September is National Sewing Month
The observance of National Sewing Month began in 1982 with a proclamation from President Ronald Reagan declaring September as National Sewing Month "In recognition of the importance of home sewing to our Nation."
September is Fashion Week Around the World
National Sewing Month and Fashions Week they do go hand in hand. Anyone can think of a design but not anyone can sew. Sewing is a life long skill without it we have no clothes.London, Milan and Paris kicks off the Fashion Week in September so does many other cities here in the USA. I love looking at all the fashion trends and the fashion recycles.
This month of September 2013 will be Sew Whatcha Know first sewing challenge. I thought that this would be a good month to start. We all are so smart and talented i think we are going to be as creative as our minds will let us be. I believe that sewing is an art I want Sew Whatcha Know Sewing Diva's to push their creativity to their limit. You all have some deigning skill if you can sew. Do the challenges you will see for your self. I know you can it will be fun. Remember the only way to get to where you want to be in your sewing skills is to try new things.
I know all the Sewing Diva's have their own challenges & other sew alongs that they are doing so i don't expect everyone to do it.
Let me know who is up for this challenge
I promise it will not be too challenging especially because some of us Sewing Diva's work and have specific time that we sew and I don't want to put too much on anybody.
So the biggest part of the challenge is to use part of your fabric stash. (if you have a stash). I am trying to get mine down so that I can buy up more fabric which will create another stash but at least it will be a different stash :). So I thought that this will make a good part of the challenge. But of course if you don't have a stash purchasing will be fine. I will randomly be sending little gift items nothing fancy but any Sewing Diva can make use of it.
Stay Tuned in to Sew Whatcha Know 1st Challenge $25 dollar Gift card will be given away at the end of the challenge.
