Sewing Alley is making some changes!!

First on the list is that I am going to a customs only shop. No more monthly stockings. Please check back here in the coming weeks as I highlight individual products and details on how to purchase customs. I will also periodically showcase fabrics that way if you see something you just love you can contact me to make it into something you will use. :)

Second is I am also leaving the congo, Hidden Element. It was wonderful to work with the ladies of HE and I will miss them!

Third and largest news is I am concentrating focus on local sales! As the year progresses I will continue to sew like I normally would for monthly stockings. However I will be gearing up for local craft shows and holiday shows instead. I love meeting the people who purchase my items face to face and feel that this is a much better use of my time. Stocking each month takes days of preparation that I would rather spend sewing!

As always you can still contact me here on the blog via the comments or email at sewing alley @ gmail.com (minus the spaces). I love to get comments about my products and am happy to answer any questions you may have.

Black Friday!

Black Friday previews are going up now through Wednesday over at Sewing Alley and Sewing Alley on Hidden Element! Make sure you check both locations for great deals on gifts for everyone on your list.

A huge black friday sale is coming up at Hidden Element!

New Products

I am excited to announce two new items here at Sewing Alley.

Crayon Cakes are great for little hands to hold onto. These are also great for making leaf prints or projects that require rubbing.

Felt Mat Roll-Ups are great for traveling and on the go. These mats are mini felt boards and come with 30 shapes. Make patterns, scenes, or whatever little imaginations can come up with! These are the perfect size for little laps and the pieces roll up inside the mat when not in use. During use the pieces cling to the felt mat.

Both of these items and more are currently stocked at Hidden Element Congo on Hyena Cart.

I am excited to announce that Sewing Alley is going to re-open on November 6th. I will still be stocking toys Hidden Element Congo the first Tuesday of the month as well.

You can now find Sewing Alley on Hidden Element!

I am incredibly excited to announce that Sewing Alley is now part of the congo Hidden Element! If you are not familiar with Hyena Cart you may be wondering what a congo is?

A congo is a conglomerate of sellers,

all stocking together in one store,

usually at regular intervals

(weekly, bi-monthly, etc.)

So there you have it. Hidden Element stocks twice a month on the first and third Tuesdays. You will not only find products from Sewing Alley but also great items from BB Butts Diapers, Canoe Creek Soap Company, Chavah Baby, Cheeky Stitches, Ewe Need Color, Tiffany's Trinkets, and many more!! Make sure to check the Sewing Alley blog for previews of items stocking on September 1st at Hidden Element as well as Sewing Alley.
