So I’ve
received quite a number of emails (not excluding comments
on the blog),and it
makes me happy not to mention excited to see a growing number of potential
participants because honestly, i wasn’t quite sure how the whole idea would be
received.
Now with this
update, I intend to shed more light on the ‘what,when,how, and who’ of the Sew
Along or as a reader called it, ‘The Sewathon!’ lol!
more on the other side....
HOW:
1.
A
piece would be chosen after being generally agreed upon i.e. we might have to
use a majority vote type of thing.
2.
Fabrics
and necessary notions would be specified
3.
A
detailed schedule would be published for easy reference
4.
Posts would be brief to avoid overloads
5.
Photos/links
of participants’ fabrics as well as work –in-process and finished projects would be published
6.
Myself
as well other participants would be on hand to assist whoever gets ‘stuck’
WHEN:
1.
A
date hasn’t been fixed as this would also be generally agreed upon, however as
soon as entries have been organized, the date would be announced a week before.
WHERE:
Wherever you
choose! As it would be an online meet up.
WHAT:
So far I’ve
gotten requests for Ankara dresses and skirts, so if you
have a particular
piece in mind, fell free to drop a line/photo as we
aren’t using a pattern (buying
or mailing patterns here in Naija isn’t
a walk in the park!) So go through your
favourite designers ( Jewel
By Lisa has been brought up more than once), and
mail me your
requests so we can reach a conclusion! As you already know, a
photograph would need to be posted of our intended project.
Email:
thatssewnaija@gmail.com
WHO:
Beginner, Intermediate,
Advanced ‘sewers’ – whether you sew for a living or just for fun, you’re
welcome, this is just a fun experienceJ
That’s all
folks, and happy choosing!
Xoxo,
Onnari
