Closed for Christmas
Merry Christmas dear LOFTies!
I’m up in the mountains looking for Santa 🎅 Claus. Here in @Dornbirn it seems quite Christmassy and promising. Hot wine, cheese, pretzels and sausages and the smell of roasted almonds.
The LOFT stays closed until 4th of January. You can already book classes/sessions from the 8th of January on.

Academy Award for Best Costume Design
Costume design: Lizzy Gardiner, Tim Chappel
When drag queen Anthony (Hugo Weaving) agrees to take his act on the road, he invites fellow cross-dresser Adam (Guy Pearce) and transsexual Bernadette (Terence Stamp) to come along. In their colourful bus, named Priscilla, the three performers travel across the Australian desert performing for enthusiastic crowds and homophobic locals. But when the other two performers learn the truth about why Anthony took the job, it threatens their act and their friendship.
We appreciate a contribution of 5 EUR for finger food and drinks during this event.
Let us know if you are vegan, allergic or have special wishes.

Slow Talks
Great things are happening in The Loft
We have invited Jana, Rita and Sara from the TV-Show "Cosido à Mão" at RTP1, the Portuguese version of the "Sewing Bee" for "Slow Talks". They will visit The Loft on the 3rd of March at 18h00.
Free Entrance
This will be the first edition of "Slow Talks at The Loft". We want to inspire, exchange ideas, connect and networking between all the Sewists in Lisbon, Portugal and further out in the world. And over all this will be a party.
In between we will get live over Facebook. Stay posted if you can't come, what would be a pity ;-)
They will talk with us about how they started sewing, their experiences during the filming, meeting some celebreties, their future plans and how the show changed their life.
You can ask questions, get a autograph or have a foto together.
And because no parties without food and drinks ... We will also serve some vegan and non-vegan snacks and drinks.
Let's get connected and keep the needles sharp, Sisters
Hugs and kisses
Ariane
We are open again :-)

Still on Holiday
I will be going to have snow much fun in the romantic mountains. The Loft is still closed until 13th of February.
Keep the needles sharp, Sisters
Hygge
Did you ever hear about "Hygge" the Danish way of saying "Cozy"? This can be hot chocolate on the sofá in winter, meeting friends by the beach for BBQ in summer or ....
.... Sewing with your aunty Anne socks on in The Loft when it's dark and cold outside. By tea and coffee.
Come in, get cozy (or crazy if you like) and try out. The first hour is free of charge
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday from 16:00 to 21:00
Open Atelier hours - Workshops like announced
For beginners and advanced
Hello, my dear Sew Sisters!
For the next 2 workshops (understanding patterns and pillowcase) there are still limited places available:
- Workshop "Pillow Cover"
(21.1. at 14h00) is to be understood as a beginner course. You do not need to have any previous knowledge. As a total beginner, you make a pillow case with "hotel closure". That means a simple overlapping input. As a beginner with minimal knowledge, you can learn how to easily attach a zipper.
- Workshop "Understanding Patterns"
(17.1. 18h00) is intended for you if you have already sewn and now you want to transfer a pattern from the magazine such as "Burda". I promise you, that looks more confusing than it really is.
You can then in the future here in The Loft or at home realize all your favorite projects. In The Loft, of course with my further help. More about it under "Information".
Bye for now!
Hugs, Ariane
