Summer gathering in St. Davids on July 9

Friends, the Custom-fit Software SIG of Philadelphia ASG finds that "summertime, when the livin' is easy" also means hot weather that encourages us to sit and sew near the fan or air conditioner. We'll share our projects and plan new ones at our summer meeting in St. Davids from about 10:30 a.m. till about 3 p.m. on Tuesday, July 9, 2013.

We use computer software to design one-of-a-kind, individually fitted garments of which any maker can be proud. When you turn the details of pattern design over to whichever type of software best meets your needs, you're on a great path! Think of having - for example - a pants pattern you can make in corduroy cut-offs, cool summer shorts, and swishy evening culottes. All derive from good measurements that the C-fS group can help you take and refine.

Want to copy something from RTW at half the cost - and fit the garment to you? We can help you analyze the software choices for sleeves, closures, drapes, and other design elements and translate them into your own special clothes with your favorite fabrics. Your choices of fabric, design, and detail compliment your sewing skills to do the rest.

As usual, we’ll go to a local diner (great quiche!) for lunch.

You don’t have to own any particular software to come to Tuesday’s meeting. If you’re curious about how software can improve your garment design and fit, come and “talk sewing” with the Custom-fit Software group on Tuesday, July 9, in St. Davids.

For driving directions, email marjjensen@aol.com; to come on the Paoli/Thorndale SEPTA train, ask for directions to walk a block and a half from the St. Davids station to the meeting. Please RSVP if you’re planning to come; we may be able to arrange transport/car-pooling, as needed.
