March 2025 Circle Time with Jeanelle Dech
Jeanelle Dech joined us this month to share a slipcover project using a very
special fabric from KLIMAKA STUDIOS- Nandina in Denim.
Nandina’s foliage pattern creates a stunning visual presentation. The 63.5″
tall landscaped (railroaded) design includes one 52.5″ section to be used for
the body of the project plus an 11″ section to be used for cushion boxing or
skirting. From pre-shrinking to the final fitting, Jeanelle guided us through
the entire process of the reverse-pin method using this unique fabric. __ __

**Preserving the Legacy of Our D &D; Forum Content**
The D&D; Forum has been a huge source of information and connection for our
community, providing invaluable insights and discussions that continue to
support our industry. Although the original website remains accessible in the
Library, maintaining it has become increasingly costly and challenging.
To safeguard this rich history and ensure these conversations remain available
for future research, we are converting the content into PDFs. Once these PDFs
are ready, they will be uploaded to the library, and you will be notified.
Soon, the website will be discontinued. However, rest assured that the content
will not be lost.
If you have fond memories of this site, we encourage you [to visit it soon

it is no longer available.

Quotes I’m Thinking About This Week:

I am often inspired by how many workrooms say, “Yes, I can do that,” even if
they have never done it before. Because they know they can figure it out or
get the help they need from our industry friends. How empowering is that?
I hope you have a great week!
