On Friday night this week (13th May), US sewing teacher, pattern designer, blogger and author Christine Haynes can be found hanging out on our side of the pond with a ready smile and a cocktail (or two) in her hand. One of our London stockists, Ray Stitch, will be doing the honours and hosting the evening in their lovely Islington shop and we predict a great sewing night out! There will be a competition for all of you who turn up wearing an Emery Dress, book signing by Christine, a 10% shop wide discount (uhoh...), lots of wonderful sewing pals and, oh yes, cocktails and snacks! 

If this sounds right up your street, please RSVP as soon as you can to Lisa at lisa@raystitch.co.uk - see you there!
