It’s time to start thinking about your entry for the 2009 National Sewing Month Contest!  This year’s theme is one that we creative quilters & sewers can easily relate to, “Reuse, Remake, Restyle”. 

Co-sponsored by the American Sewing Guild and the Sewing & Craft Alliance, the contest encourages sewing enthusiasts to “innovate while they recreate”, in the areas of home decor, fashion, quilts & accessories.  Three lucky winners will receive prize packages of equipment, tools, notions, fabric and more, including a selection of Marcus Fabrics. Contest ends September 30, 2009.
