the Makerie: a special sneak peek!
We can officially say we are kicking off registration on Monday, September 24 (yes ~ this coming Monday!) and thought a little sneak peek of what we've got in store would be a fun way to send you into the weekend. We are beyond elated to announce that we are doing two retreats this year ~ our original Makerie and a brand new event ~ the Makerie Sewing ~ April 18 - 21, 2013.
The original Makerie is just chock full of goodness and we'll wait until Monday to reveal the details. After all, we do love surprises and can't wait for you to see the wonderful workshop offerings! But in the meantime, we wanted to share a bit about this super exciting new event focused on sewing and textiles. To give you a little background, Liesl Gibson of Oliver + S, who taught for us last year, planted a seed at the 2012 Makerie when she asked if we had ever thought about doing a sewing-specific Makerie and well... here we are! Liesl and I have been working all summer to put together an amazing team of teachers and fabulous workshops, as well as an entirely new event design for this one-time very special sewing event. Not only will you get to choose four classes with four different teachers, but each class will be four hours long, giving you two full days (16 hours total) of incredible instruction. In case you want more time to play, we will also be offering studio time to work on whatever you'd like.
So without further ado... here is who will be teaching at the Makerie Sewing!
This team of teachers is really beyond our wildest dreams (still pinching ourselves over here!) and we are incredibly honored to have them come to Boulder in April. The Makerie Sewing will be limited to an intimate group of participants and we have so much more in store that we can't wait to tell you. So mark your calendars for Monday when all will be revealed and registration will be open!
Here's to a fabulous weekend filled with sunshine, leaf peeping, and of course, lots of happy making. See you on Monday!
