Jenny's Sewing Class

When we moved to New York, I knew I wanted to sign up for a class at Lena's studio. I was lucky enough to get a spot in Jenny's (of Wiksten) sewing class where we completed one of her signature pieces: the tova shirt. It was great to learn from Jenny (I can successfully line up plaids now!) and to hang out with a great group of awesome ladies. Check out Jenny's post about our class here

The shirt is gorgeous and the class sounds wonderful. If I lived on the same continent I'd love to take part...

This is totally off-topic, but here goes: I saw your beautifully photographed asparagus and cheese tart on A Merry Mishap, and I have been drooling over it ever since. Would you consider posting the recipe you used?

Your top turned out beautifully! I love the fabric you used. It was really nice meeting you- I hope I run into you again.

Hope you're having a great weekend.
