Did Rita just whisper that the Midwest YaYa’s Sisters - Rita and Mary –
may make a special appearance at the upcoming NZP Sewing Event? Stay tuned!
Hooray! Rita Farro and I published the 99th issue of SCHMETZ Inspired to SEW (SITS). Just one more issue to go. Issue #100 is the complete index covering over eight years of stitch stories. What started as an idea for a quarterly e-zine quickly morphed into a monthly. Initially, the goal was to publish 12 issues. Then the goal was three years, then five. So, we just kept going. There will be no issue #101. Instead, a new celebration of stitches will launch later in the year, so stay tuned and continue to read this newsletter for announcements.
Meanwhile, Rita and I did a spontaneous SCHMETZ Snippet FBLive on Saturday. It’s only 10 minutes with laughs and our most frequent SITS talent and friend, Mary Mulari. If you missed it, click this link: https://fb.watch/c1M-LWPYgi/.

SCHMETZ Inspired to Sew
Issue #99
Ninety-nine issues done. This is the last issue, except for the index in issue #100. In 2013, an idea for a quarterly publication took shape at a Creative Arts Business Summit (CABS) lead by Morna McEver Golletz in Washington DC, then bloomed into this monthly e-zine. At that time, print magazines were beginning to fade . . .
