First before anything else, I must acknowledge that today, September 30th, is
National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
In Canada today is marked by both the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day. Today, like every day should be in this country, is a day for learning, acknowledgement and reflection about the land and history of this country and our place in it as a community. I hope that you will take a moment and explore the links above to find out more.
National Sewing Month
Today also marks the closing of National Sewing Month. Did you notice that things were quiet over at NationalSewingMonth.org? Other than the naming of this year's theme "Spread Love, Stitch Love" this celebration of sewing felt low key.
Congratulations to MimiG for spreading the love with a new line of sewing patterns ready for stitching. The new pattern line, KnowMe features designers known in the online sewing community. This month she also shared sewing trivia throughout the month. What I love about these patterns is that the sizing is more inclusive and there are more options for sewing men's clothing.
