About

We are beginning a new series of programs we call “Sew-Alongs. ” What is a Sew-Along?  It is kind of like a sewing bee where a group of sewing enthusiasts get together and work on the same kind of project.  

The Fiber Arts Studio 'Sewing Programming Committee' has selected some popular clothing patterns. People who want to participate will purchase the pattern and buy the fabric and notions required to make the garment. Then, we will meet and work together to make the chosen garment. 

The first Sew-Along project is the 'Out and About Dress' by Sew Caroline.  You can see a picture of it by clicking on the following link: Out and About Dress.

Men interested in participating should contact us about an alternative pattern: fiber.lead@bainbridgebarn.org
