Laura's Sewing School & More Field Trip Survey
Required Required Question(s)

This survey is intended to determine what places you would like to go to on an informal "Field Trip?"

I am asking you for feedback on ideas I already have but am open to your thoughts on these topics. 

 
Required 1.

You can check as many boxes you want to show your interest. Feel free to add your own ideas.

During 2009, I have taken several small groups of students to places with sewing themes: Portsmouth Fabric Company, Sawyer Brook Fabrics and the Sewing Expo.  I plan to repeat these trips but also want to get your feedback below.  


These trips would be rather informal.  We would carpool to the location, I would arrange a tour or whatever was needed and then we could have lunch at a nice place nearby.  This is a great way to get new ideas, be inspired and get some fantastic materials for your projects. I would like to plan the first trip for January to the Iris Apfel exhibit as it only runs until February 7th.  Whether you like fashion or another area of sewing, you can be inspired by Iris Apfel's work.  So, I hope to see you there.


So that you can check these places out yourself, I have included the web addresses of particular locations, just copy and paste it into your browser.
