Monday nights are open to all things creative, not only sewing fabric! There are several sewing machines and sergers available, or you are welcome to bring your own and get assistance with questions. Feel free to browse the extensive hoard of patterns and reference books for ideas, borrow tools or hands for things you cannot do easily on your own, and make friends with others working on projects of their own.

For questions or to discuss a possible alternative workshop scheduling, you may call Barwnes Angharat (JonnaLyhn) at 253.377.8952 or email her at celedraug@gmail.com. Please be aware that there are pets, for those with fur allergies. Children are welcome, either to sew too, or hang out with the Petite Tzarina.
