knit-one-one studio is almost one year old/sew-one-one

It is hard to believe that the studio space on Adeline is almost 1 year old. I have posted pics of its evolution---not necesssarily in order---sorry!

We knew when we moved in that the studio would work for all kinds of classes, groups, parties, photo shoots, and fairs and luckily for us we have been proven right. It would have been a bit of disaster now wouldn't it if it had been otherwise!

The latest use of the studio has been for sewing classes and....surprise surprise it is working fabulously for those classes too. Part of the reason it works so well is that the light is fantastic---natural light really beams through the skylight---we often don't have to turn on the electric lights at all. And of course the color scheme also makes it look bright and light too.

The beginning sewing class
under Kira's expert guidance has been working on the cute bag---we will post pics of their finished creations next week. In February Kira
teaches a more intermediate class where she and her students will whip up their personalized versions of the skirt above. (The pattern has 4 different versions) Now talk about a great recession activity----sewing your own clothes has got to be at the top of the list. And not only sewing your own clothes but having a finished product that looks professional--which anything you do under Kira's tutelage will----now that's a winner. (Skirt classes are Saturday Feb 7, 14, 21) They won't be up on the site until this coming weekend but e-mail us if you would like to reserve your spot in advance. ( queenbee@knitoneone.com)

PS I am now feeling fine---phew---and home again----so....blog posts will be more numerous!
