This week at sewing night we continued with the epic numbers. With the addition of Dad, who joined us for a while last week, and Benita's mom, Irene, we had 8 people!
Dad has over 40 years of upholstery experience, so most of this sewing stuff makes perfect sense to him. He was helping coach for most of the night. I was disappointed that I didn't manage to get a picture of him holding up this ruffly red satin skirt he was helping Nadine with. It was too cute. :P

Dad was coaxed into breaking out his guitar and playing the songs he learned for his recent role as Pecos Bill in a local play.
Notice on the table: Nail polish, Sewing junk, Snacks. We know how to have a good time!
The camaraderie and mentoring and sharing and learning continued. Benita sewed her very first elastic waist!
I love these busy nights. They are so much fun! Sometimes we don't get a lot of sewing done, but I'm starting to notice that that's not the most important part of Sewing Night!
