*Join our new free sewing book club BOOKS AND BOBBINS! Each month features a new title along with themed sewing and crafting projects! Enjoy learning something new while discussing great book over great drinks and snacks! *
Our First Novel Pick: Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey in conjunction with Jane Austen's Sewing Box by Jennifer Forest; A book about the love of books and a book about a love of sewing in books! I highly recommend purchasing Northanger Abbey in either e-reader or physical form (as appose to audiobook version) so that you can follow along. If you would like an inexpensive physical copy I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the $5 Book store in Simi Valley or the $10 Book Store in Northridge (one main street away from Kingdom Sewing)
Our First Project Pick: "Work Bag" from Jane Austen's Sewing Box (pages will be provided in email, and in class (though we will be tweaking it a bit) purchase not necessary. This is a great project for all levels of sewers and it will results in a great bag to keep you books sewing supplies in!
*Project Pack Price $7*
Our First Meeting Date: Currently, our date is set for February 29th, the last Saturday of the month 11am-1pm. This is just a general idea so please let me know if this time will work for you guys or if another date/time would be better! I want a date that works for everyone if possible!
Meeting Location:
Kingdom Sewing and Vacuum of Northridge
8923 Reseda Blvd
Northridge, CA 91324
About us:
The more I learn the more I want to share and promote the gift of sewing and recently I saw a fantastic opportunity to merge two of my greatest passions together! Books and Bobbins will be meeting once month (for now anyway ?) starting at the end of February to facilitate a love of sewing, reading and community. Whether you are a veteran sewer or have never touched a sewing machine before, this club is for you. SEWING is not required and READING is not required! Though both are highly encouraged I understand that, in our busy lives, not everyone may be ready to commit to coming to a new class or reading an entire novel and that's completely fine! Books and Bobbins is meant to be a easy-going and relaxing two hours that EVERYONE CAN LOOK FORWARD TO as a time for communing with others and having a chance to take advantage new opportunities (and of course, eat delicious food and snacks!) . I have resurrected my old Book Club of Champions page so that everyone can follow along with the B&B Book pick, share ideas, share book/sewing related suggestions and tutorials, and just enjoy the pleasure of each other's company, even if we can't all get in the same room together!
