September marks National Sewing Month – a declaration started in 1982 by then-President Ronald Regan. The National Sewing Month website, along with the American Sewing Guild, encourages sewers, new and old alike, to celebrate the month by putting to work their sewing machine. They are also challenging everyone Reuse, Remake, Restyle a garment into a new, eco-friendly project. This contest runs until September 30, 2009 with 3 winners taking home a prize package filled with notions, tools, fabrics and more! So what are you waiting for? Get out there and celebrate a whole month devoted to your craft!

    I am already doing this and I didn’t even realise September is the national sewing month! :)

    On my blog I am doing a Craft a Day in September or what I’ve called CADS and I have a few fellow CADetteS who help to spur each other along and keep us all crafty and inspired:)

    If any one is interested in joining our CADS group then go to http://www.tinkshui.co.uk/craft-a-day-sept/ for more info.
