This month, I am hosting the Sewing Pattern Testers BSD Maggie Sew-A-Long at the Sewing Pattern Testers Blog.  Harley and Todd both had injuries that needed dealt with, so I am off to a late start.

There are several ways to join the Maggie Sew-A-Long.  You can follow the posts on the Sewing Pattern Testers Blog, join the Facebook Group, and then join the Facebook Event.  If you do join the Facebook Group, be sure to fill out the membership agreement.  Share your creations using the hashtags #BSDMaggie and #sewingpatterntesters.

  • The Bella Sunshine Designs Maggie Top, Tunic, & Dress Pattern.
