With Mother’s Day right around the corner, we at nido wanted to share a few gift ideas for all the mother’s in your life.

Do they love knitting? Malabrigo lace weight merino yarn comes in vibrant colors and is perfectly matched with the Ishbel shawl pattern, which only takes one skein!

Are they an avid stitcher that is looking for something new? How about the Applique Your Way book, full of fun and unique projects, paired with a fat  quarter bundle of Cut Out and Keep fabric by South African designer Heather Moore.

If they are looking to start sewing but haven’t made the jump, or are just in the beginning stages, one of our classes would be just the thing to help them along. And of course a nido gift certificate would also be a lovely gift to give (and receive!)

The much anticipated Nani Iro Spring 2011 collection is here! This year we are happy to offer, along with the gorgeous double gauze, a set of knits! Just in time for warmer weather this to-die-for fabric is light and airy while still being durable enough for making garments of home goods out of it. And Oh! The prints! They are elegant in a way that is unique to its Japanese origins, with ethereal flowers and adorable polka dots. If you live near by stop in and see for yourself just how beautiful this fabric is, or if you can’t be sure to stop by our online shop!

nido’s spring & summer class schedule is now up–yay!

Join us this spring & learn how to make exciting projects ranging from patchwork zipper pouches to summer tunics,  dresses & skirts! And you won’t want to miss out on this FABULOUS bag either!

Looking to make something that isn’t on the schedule? New to the schedule is our  Simple Sewing Series,  a 6 weeks sewing session designed to help students with projects of their choosing. nido provides sewing machines, cutting mats, tools & helpful instruction for beginner sewists who are looking to tackle new projects but maybe need a little help doing so.
