I was beyond thrilled to have been asked to participate in this most AWESOME sew-along. You are all invited to come sew along with me during the Zakka Style Sew Along! A group of 24 bloggers, led by Lindsey of LRstitched and Amy of Sukie, will be making every project from Rashida Coleman-Hales' book Zakka Style.
There are 24 projects in the book and we will be sewing right through it from start to finish!
The sew along starts Monday April 2nd with the first project in the book and will continue through Monday September 10th with a new project introduced each Monday. We'll each be sewing up a different project and will be sharing our finished projects, inspiration for fabrics, and helpful tips with you. I am up first with the Zig Zag tote. Get a copy and meet me here on April 2nd.
