2013 NYC Fashion Sewing Tour
 
 Join Marsha McClintock & Janet Pray in NYC  
 
Once a year Islander Sewing Systems and American Sewing Expo come together with Marsha McClintock of Sew Many Option Tours to create the fashion sewing vacation of a lifetime in NYC!
Happy NYC Shopper
We only take 20 people so the experience is intimate and rewarding. We visit iconic locations like Rockefeller Center as we take you on a half day guided bus tour of the city. You will experience: visits to well known fashion designer's workrooms, a private docent tour of vintage designer garments at FIT, a popular Broadway Play, museum exhibits of fashion, shopping at leather stores, trim shops, and a plethora of fabric stores and an evening dinner cruise around the island of Manhattan and many surprises.

April 1 - 4, 2013 Certification Class 
 
 

ISS sewinghands

The annual workshop and certification class is one of our favorite events. The class size is limited and in a relaxed setting.   

 

Join us for three days of professional techniques and an optional fourth day for those wishing to become a certified Islander Sewing Systems instructor. Two optional field trips are also available to a better fabric store and a "snoop shopping" trip. 

 

The first day and half will consist of making samples from a provided pre-cut kit of the basic Islander Sewing Systems techniques (learning to sew without pins). The next day and half you will construct a shirt from the provided kit. By making this shirt you will learn even more industrial techniques and take home a lovely sample shirt as well.  

 

For those wishing to certify, the fourth day will be a short day with a lecture and Q&A on teaching sewing as a business.  

 

More information and details are available on the website or call us at: 248-889-5091.

Frixion Erasable Gel Pens
 Gel Frixion pens are the greatest for drawing stitching lines, marking darts and notches and even for scrapbookers. These pens don't smear, won't wash off, won't rub off--- but when you are ready to erase the line, simply touch it with a hot iron and the lines disappear!!
