The photos are in a photo gallery here. Of the 818, I edited it down to 189 in this folder. The photos edited out were because that’s just how it works. If someone was caught mid-tooth-cleaning or a skirt twirled up too far, it was removed. Sure, there are plenty of goofy faces still, and I hope you enjoy them as a reminder of a fun night.

Thank you for coming. As a reminder, throughout the year, I will be posting on the Portland Frocktails Instagram account for more meet-ups throughout the year and local classes & events. We don’t get as much email or website follow-through as we do Instagram, so while I apologize for anyone left out, I will only use this site for the main, yearly, more “formal” event. We’ve already had one Instagram meet-up, and I have more lined up including a special pop-up store holiday shopping event.

Extra thanks to Josephine’s Dry Goods and Clutch Camera. We get the best photos of any event out there, so I just want to give credit to Bini and Justin for taking the studio out of commission for us, setting it up for an event, and clean-up. Justin was literally pressure washing the sidewalks for us earlier that afternoon.

Thank you to our sponsors for gifts and donations. This event is a lot of fun to plan, but I couldn’t do it without the help of our sewing community. Please remember them when you’re shopping for your sewing goodies.

One last huge thank you to my volunteers this year. Fonda, Andrea, and Mingaile made all the extras this year possible. Mahri from Bolt Fabric Store stepped in to help as well! They volunteered their time and labor so that we had extra help for pre-party set-up, help with check-in for our extended length of time, all the swag bag and new craft table options, social help navigating the room, and I was freed up to relieve Bini from her extra help with the photography this year. Thank you.
