BurdaStyle Party


I just got back from the BurdaStyle book launch party in San Francisco tonight, and it was AMAZING! It was like seeing all my favorite sewing bloggers come to life in a room filled with crafts, grilled cheese sandwiches, and wood engraving machines (check at the Tech Shop's cool space). I got to know Amy from Sew Well and Laura from Lilacs & Lace (pictured above), chatted with the lovely Mena from Sew Weekly, and met the crew from ModCloth (based in SF!) and BurdaStyle.

Clearly I am geeking out about this, but it's sorta a dream come true for a girl who has, up 'til now, had an entirely internet-based relationship with the sewing community. I am now more determined than ever to get to know more of the local scene. Anyone up for the Alameda Flea Market or a trip to Scrap?

Me with Laura and the lovely dressmakers from Cañada College.

  3. I totally agree - it was wonderful to actually meet people and have a real conversation with sewing bloggers who share similar interests.

    And January sounds fabulous. Let's do it!

  4. I don't know if I'm going to be properly recovered first thing in the morning on January first to go to the Alameda Flea Market, but I'm down for a trip to Scrap in January and the market in early February!
