Happy Monday again sewing friends! Today I am keeping it short and sweet. Once AGAIN I have been away from my sewing space, traveling for business, BUT we are finally at a spot where less travel will be required for a while and I am SO ready to get back to creating! While we were away I filmed a fun YouTube video of my hubby to “test” his sewing knowledge. Then we toured a local quilt shop where I gave him a little challenge. It was fun to watch him try to see this hobby through my lens. He was a super good sport, bless him. I’ve linked the video below if you’d like to go check it out. I’d love to say a Great Big HELLO and welcome to our newest members! We are so glad you’ve joined our little sewing family and can’t wait to get to know you each a little better. @Megan Jackson @Gina Eveland @Deborah Clark @Sonja Simmons @Megan Androsky-Main @Katrina Leggett @Parish Ware @Guadalupe Salazar @Priscilla King @Jephete Alexis @Shirley Phillips @Emma Cumbo Don’t forget that the Beginner’s- LEARN TO SEW Course can be accessed in the Classroom By Upgrading to Premium for only $7

In many ways, this is AMAZING—but it does come with a few challenges.

Hi!!!😀 everyone my name is Franchesca I’m new to the group just wanted to introduce myself to you all, I’m excited to start this new journey and learn lots of new things 😀

It’s Monday again and I can hardly believe it! For me this past week has been a whirlwind considering my 6 day VERY BUSY work trip to Minnesota. I’m so grateful for my job but I am really happy to be home. As they say “there’s no place like home” 🏡 Chime in and let us know where you are joining us from this week. 🗞️ Here’s a little bit of fun news that I am super EXCITED about! The Skool platform has been secretly advertising our The Sewing Academy and other communities on Facebook & Instagram Meta ads for the past month!! It was such a SHOCK to open my social media a few weeks ago and see ads that I DID NOT place right there in my feeds. Talk about tears of JOY!!! I am so grateful for their faith in this humble little sewing community that we are building here. Skool recently released that they will be continuing to release these ads for us in the future in their new “Growth Boost” initiative.🚀 SOOOOO… if you see us advertised out in the wild on your FB or IG feeds, chime in in the comments BELOW THE AD and give a shout out or a little testimonial of The Sewing Academy. I would be SO grateful!!! Also, let us know here if you see one of these ads. I took screenshots of the few that I've seen, and will post them below. 💛 Let’s say Hello & give a WARM WELCOME to all of our lovely new sewing friends: @Maribel Rivera @Cynthia Rice @Ray Ponder @Alexis Batzel @Christine Allen @Silvia Pajuelo @Alyssa Primicias @Barbara Felder @Kirsten Cowie @Penelope Powell @Maha Lakshmi WELCOME TO ALL OF YOU!!!
