| Hello my dear <<First Name>> Winter is very much upon us, no matter which part of the country you are in, and the shorter days seem to be slipping away quickly. I do hope you are all well and keeping warm. Silent Sewing Academy is eleven years old this year and, with the grace of the Almightly, we are now a well-established sewing school. According to a quick Google search, the traditional theme of eleventh anniversaries is Steel, while the more modern theme is Fashion Jewelery and Accessories. I think this is symbolic for us because after eleven years in the market, with the Grace of the Almightly, we are a force to be reckoned with. Our tried and tested methods, comprehensive notes and our willingness to adapt to the changing fashion and economic environments all work together to create a well-oiled empowerment machine that is second to none. With your feedback and constant positive criticism, it is only onward and upward from here, if God wills. We have received many proposals to upgrade the school by creating a division which formally focuses on empowering the less-fortunate. We have always been doing what has been in our ability to empower those in need, and we would like to do more. We would appreciate your input to help us do better. Our annual Student Designer Showcase will be held on 6 October 2018. Our freshly-graduated Module 3 students are taking the opportunity to do Module 4 to help prepare themselves for the show. The theme this year is A Family Affair. We have earnestly tried, in the past, to make it a memorable occasion for our students and we hope that with the guidance of The Almighty we grow better with each passing year.

In addition, we also piloted our very first Handwork Course for Boys, which incorporated needlework and woodwork. Below are some random pictures taken during the holiday courses.I love receiving messages from past students. Here is an email I received from Megan: Hi Farhana, I just wanted to send a quick note to tell you we are moving to London. I also wanted to thank you again for being such an amazing teacher. I’m using so much of what I learned in your class in my sewing now. Megan. Megan is a fascinating person who took sewing to another level. I, myself, found a few intriguing methodologies that she used and implemented in my own sewing and teaching. Thank you Megan! We will always be a family on the SSA WhatsApp group, but we will miss you in this year’s show. Here’s wishing you all the best on your next adventure. Till next time, Mrs. A |
