CONGRATULATIONS!!! again to our incredible instructor, Louisa, whose work was just selected for inclusion in a new book: Artistic Floral Design 2020. It comes out in July 2020 and I can't wait to get my hands on it! In celebration of Louisa's incredible talent and artistry, here's a few photos she shared recently of pieces she and her students have been creating in these unprecedented times. Louisa, we are humbled by you! Find out more about the book at https://aifd.org/announcing-the-aifd-artistic-floral-desig/ [Image description: three floral displays, including a timeless bouquet with roses and lilies in rich dusky pinks and whites; a romantic floral crown in peaches and soft pinks; and a striking display featuring bamboo canes radiating out from a central design in green and purple flowers]

Check out this beautiful kimono-style cardigan made in our online Sewing Level 2 class by student Cami! I love the personality this piece has - the wide sleeves, the trim shape across the back - and did I mention my all-time favourite detail: great pockets?? When Cami isn't making jaw-dropping cardigans, she and her sister make incredible swimwear - take a look at https://www.fenntessa.com/ :) [Image description: Front, side, and rear views of model wearing sage-green kimono-style cardigan, calf length, with wide sleeves and broad pockets at the hip]

I absolutely love the shirt our student Tracy made in her online Sewing Level 2 class with beautiful fabric from Spool of Thread! I can't get over the fit she's got across the shoulders and the details she's added at the cuffs and sleeves. Tracy, if I was wearing a hat, I would take it off to you. More classes are starting through the summer - join us at https://langara.ca//vsb-sewing-and-fashion-ar/courses.html.
