I was thinking- do we want to set up some sort of a field trip before the actual sewing event to pick up fabrics? We could go to a Fabric Depot sale, perhaps? They have TONS of great loli style cotton prints that would be great, and on a 30% off day totally worth it!
we could arrange something like that for anyone who needs to pick up materials in the morning or something... but would we be using your car or taking the bus together? (I think you and cupcake are the only ones with cars and I don't know if she is going to be there :/) also let me know if you find anything out for the venue, K?
I am putting in my calender to ask about the venue in question on the 10th.
I also have the ability to rent out my apartment complex's day use area. It is free, but I need to give them a $400 check to hold in case of damages. It *kind* of scares me, just because that is a lot of money, but I can't imagine a bunch of lolitas making dresses would cause much damage. ;)
This second option is bigger, but I think with less tables? I will have to check. I also live kind of deep in SE, on 92nd and Flavel. The 19 stops a block from the complex, but it is like an hour ride from downtown.
As far as a car, I am certainly willing to give a ride to anyone who would fit in my car, which is unfortunately small (room for *maybe* 5 including me). We could also go to Knittn Kitten (thrift fabric on 75th & glisan SE)
Questions: Do you know when you want to host this event? Can it be on a Sunday?
Ask about the one downtown first, but if we need to use one at your building I'll probably put down the deposit check myself, I couldn't ask you to do that and this is my meetup so I'm responsible after all.
The event can be on a Sunday :) earlyist I think I could pull it all together would be Jul. 19th so pretty much any weekend after that would work as long as no-one has a major scheduling conflict.
