Nihon Vogue - Last Weekend Class for Year One

The last weekend for Nihon Vogue Year One was spent with little classroom instruction but ample one on one assistance by Jean. This weekend was the last class until Year Two which starts in early October - many of us were bound and determined to be finished with each garment and to have it's corresponding quarter scale design notes signed off by Jean. Each student has to completely finish all 8 garments in order to officially finish year one and obtain the certificate of completion. I had finished Project 8 and was slowly working through the final stages of seaming and edging a crocheted tank top which was Project 7.



Andrea's husband Tim, my husband Rob, Melinda's husband Paul, Naomi's husband Greg and Phyllis' husband and darling 5 year old son arrived to help show their support and partake in the celebration dinner that Suzanne prepared. The dinner was a scrumptious feast based on Spanish Tapas with salmon taco's, salad, gazpacho, sangria, hors d'oeuvres and fruit tart. It was a perfect way to celebrate the end of class.
