these several weeks at home and being in 'Creative Mode' as I finish the designing and sewing and writing and recording audio for my new Top Priorities line of instructional Talking Booklets - all about sewing knit tops! For a Quick Sneak Peak, check out this little 'show n' tell video. Â
My new Upscale Techniques for Knit Tops booklet flew off the hooks at the Martha Pullen show 2 weeks ago in Orlando. This is the backbone of my new line - and the info in it will NOT be repeated in the new booklets, but rather build on this body of information. Here is what Janet in Pennsylvania wrote to me just yesterday... "I just got my copy of Londa's Upscale Techniques for Knit Tops and
'devoured' it last night. I also watched the 'talking pattern' that
coordinates with the book. WOW!! The pattern used as a starting point
is Pamela's Perfect T-Shirt pattern from which I've been making knit
tops since taking a class with Pam this past fall. Londa's book and
talking pattern provided excellent additional fitting and construction
information that I'll be incorporating into my knit top making. I
highly recommend the book. It's so easy to make an upscale knit top
using Pamela's pattern and Londa's additional information. What Londa's
done for sweatshirts, she's now doing for knit tops. I can't wait for
future publications of the 'top priorities' line of books and talking
patterns. "
You can have yours - right now if you like, via pdf delivery. Click here to order.

Many more gals have signed up to join me at the 2nd Annual Creative Sewing Getaway in Danville, IL April 26-29...but there's still room for you. Call if you have questions. Here is where to sign up. At just $350, it is a BARGAIN weekend of girl time, making new friends, sewing - and some shopping all in one. OH - and I'll teach you a few new sewing tricks too!
While I stitch and design, I always listen to my favorite radio shows - past programs, etc. In this election year, I feel it is very important to stay informed, read, listen, and 'hear it from their own mouths' instead of interpreted by the 'news' 'people.  Today, it was refreshing and heart-warming and inspirational to hear Karen and Rick Santorum interviewed by Dr. James Dobson - not on political things, but on LIFE. As a Christian gal who worked through infertility, adopted 2 children as infants, and now oversees the care for 2 elderly parents as the 'kid in town', I value life. I pray you do as well. Nothing is more important. Nothing. The person I vote for to lead my country and the free world MUST respect life.    I recommend your listening to these programs...
It's Sew Easy ... a new television sewing show for PBS stations.
