I spent the earlier part of this evening at the Sew-Op, at our first Open Hours of the season. Later this week I'll post some pictures of the space, so any of you who have never been can get an idea of what the place looks like.
A brief description, again, of what we do and are for: about half the time we have classes. Basic sewing, knitting, spinning, mending, stretching the life of kids' clothes, and embroidery are all on the docket for this year, all on Monday evenings 5:30-7:30. Classes are $25 ($20 if you are a Co-Op member) and registration is required, which can be done in the Co-op at the front (by the cash registers) or by emailing or calling Kye Cochran (802-295-5804). Next week (September 19) we have a Basic Sewing class with spaces still open!
On Monday evenings when there is no class, and now on every other Saturday in the late morning, the workshop is open to the public for free and without any registration necessary. Open hours are a time for people to bring projects to the Sew-Op to work on (it needn't be sewing), where they can be inspired by others working around them, have company while doing a boring task like hand hemming, and get advice on completion of the project - a Sew-Op volunteer is always present.
Check the schedule for the rest of September and October and check back at the end of the week for some photos of the Sew-Op!
