I pleased to announce the debut of the newest It's Sew Easy TV series! ​ This season It’s Sew Easy is taking things step by step, helping you build skills in many areas of sewing.
Watch Angela Wolf make an on-trend tunic over the course of the season. In addition, you’ll see great gift items, like a pashmina wrap, or glasses case. There are also doll clothes, and fleece coats with strict attention to detail.
 
There’s even a special quilt feature, with starter blocks made into interesting projects outside of standard quilts.

When I went to your website to get the eye glass pattern, it showed 'page error'. I cannot load the pattern. I would love to receive this pattern. Could you email me the pattern please? thank you.

Hello Ardie! I'm not familiar with that technique but I bet you could do a square in a square quilt block search on YouTube and find some options. Let me know if you're successful, it sounds like a fun project!
