Happy New Year friends of First Fridays!
It’s your old pal TJ from Studio Mailbox here to bring you a wrap-up of our 2016 monthly posts. What a year full of fun, laughter, and most importantly, sewing kindness.
Let’s have a look back at everything that went on:
January – I shared a First Friday Round-Up from 2015
February – Heather called for an annual theme and the RASK campaign was launched
March – I stitched up a giant hole in the knee of my jeans and shared tons of links supporting cool stuff
April – Christa’s dog ate her couch and since reupholstery is way above my pay grade, it was Grandma to the rescue!
May – I was invited to my first sewing retreat
June – I did my part to sew tiny books for an amazing art installation
July – Quick and easy scrap buster cards
August – Heather lost her beloved dog Chewie and it was time to make a Pet Sympathy card
September – After sucking my skirt up in the vacuum cleaner it was time to learn how to hem
October – No post! Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.
November – It was time to update my little boy’s room and get rid of baby fabric
December – Random Acts of Sewing Kindness came full circle, finishing off the year with a sewing lesson with Christa.
In case you haven’t had enough, here’s the First Friday Round-Up from 2014, the year I was in quilt mode.
Remember First Fridays started way back in 2012 when I created a meme for Heather’s birthday and continued Sewing Memes throughout 2013. (Some of which I must admit are pretty cringe worthy looking back at it now, but what did I know? I was making memes before there were apps for them).
