Oh, here we go... Sew Magarbo is proud to announce its first ever live series - Sew-cialite Sundays! Ever watched Gossip Girl? (I mean, if you haven't, you're definitely missin' out!!!).

Anyways, ironically, whenever they have brunch, ALL the drama goes down! So, to emulate that "socialite" life, Sew Magarbo decided to start a live show every Sunday @ 2 talking about sewing, talking to fellow artists/creatives, and have a laugh or two! (all while munching on food of course).

If you have any suggestions for what we should feature, let us know! Also, if you'd like to be featured, don't be afraid to ask as well!! We'd love to have anybody share their art, passion, anecdotes, or cheesy dad jokes.

Get PUMPED! Coming soon ;-)

Hi everyone! It’s almost that time of the month..... you know, the special day dedicated to that special woman in our life.... our mamas! Without their mother’s, some wouldn’t know how to sew, how to be handy, or even how to get to sewing classes! (Wink). This year, Sew Magarbo wants to show their appreciation for moms by offering a sweet deal. However, we need your help. Which would appeal to those looking for gifts for their moms or to spoil their mommy selves with? Let us know! 🍒💓🌷🌟
