ewing Camp is coming to Londa's Sunroom Sewing Studio this summer - and it works a little differently than most camps you've seen!
I'm offering four weeks of small-group sewing instruction for kids and teens ages 6 through 18, right here at 167 Whitfield Drive in Jackson. Maximum 3 students per week. Real instruction. Real results.
Here's the fun part: the FIRST family to purchase a seat for a week gets to set the details - the age group, the skill level, and the project focus. Then together we find the two additional students needed to make the week go. I promote on social media, you spread the word among your homeschool friends, co-op, and neighbors.
Available weeks:
July 13-16
July 27-30
August 3-6
August 10-13
Sessions run Monday-Thursday, 3 hours per day (your choice of morning or afternoon). $275 per student. A Friday "finish up" session is included that week at no extra charge if your child needs a little more time to complete their project.
Age groups: Wee Stitchers (ages 6-7, hand sewing, all supplies included), Young Stitchers (ages 8-10), Savvy Stitchers (ages 11-13), and Senior Stitchers (ages 14-18).
I'm a 74-year-old grandmother with 54 years of sewing experience and 10 years of teaching kids right here in Jackson. References available. Studio visits warmly welcomed before you commit.
Register and purchase your seat directly at: www.londas-sewing.com/sewing-class-registration Prefer Venmo, Cash App, or cash delivered. Call or text 217-369-4687 and I'll get you set up. Seat is not reserved until payment is received.

Appropriate for Memorial Day 'times' just past, my Substack from Tuesday, May 26 is Part I of a 2017 visit to the WW2 Museum in New Orleans - and some personal observations of the lack of willingness to sacrifice for a greater good among so many today.
WW2 Museum Textiles/Clothing
Several years ago, hubby and I visited this amazing museum, so here on Memorial Day 2026, I'm copying this old blog post here to share, even though I realize you'll get this a day late.

My latest 'upcycle' with a strong message of support for Rep. Monty Fritts for TN Governor - in the Aug. 6 election. Go read more about this No-PAC $ taking, strong Christian businessman, degree in divinity, Desert Storm service..... it goes on and on, but MONTY should warrant your checking into. I am heading up his efforts here in Madison County, TN - so if you are local around here and want to help - please let me know!

Like a painter who creates because her spirit drives her to, I designed and stitched these garments because I simply had to โ it's who I am.
These unique handcrafted garments are hanging in my studio, waiting for the right woman to discover them and add them to her wardrobe.
In honor of America's 250th birthday, each piece is available for adoption at just $25 โ with every dollar of the adoption fee going directly to Tunnel to Towers Foundation and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Mainland USA shipping $21.95.
And if you've ever dreamed of something made just for you โ from fabrics (or garments, linens, ties, etc.) that you already own and love โ I'd be honored to make that happen. Custom commission work is my greatest joy.

NO - not sewing-related, but my other passion: PATRIOTISM! Here's an invitation for you to join me tomorrow night via ZOOM: ๐บ๐ธ TOMORROW NIGHT โ Rebuilding Liberty starts at 7:00 pm CST!
Just 90 minutes โ FREE โ and it could change how you see America's future forever.
Here's a question worth pondering: Did you know that America's very first public school law in 1647 was explicitly founded on Biblical principles? And that prayer and Bible reading were stripped from public schools by Supreme Court decisions in 1962 and 1963?
Tomorrow night we begin tracing exactly how we got here โ and more importantly, how we REBUILD.
The good news? The Supreme Court has been moving in the right direction โ culminating in the landmark 2022 Kennedy v. Bremerton decision which reversed decades of hostility toward faith in the public square.
This is the history and hope that Rebuilding Liberty is built on โ and this is just Week One!

TOMORROW โ Tuesday April 28, 7:00-8:30 pm CST
๐ป FREE via Zoom โ join from anywhere in the USA
โฐ Just 90 minutes a week for four weeks
