BACKGROUNDThe concept was created as a social gathering and cocktail party for home sewists and makers to meet, socialize, and show off garments they made themselves. The name is a portmanteau of "frock" (a dress) and "cocktail". From its Australian roots, Frocktails has grown into an international movement with independently organized local events across the globe including cities in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.

FROCKTAILS is a celebration of your creativity- Think girls' night out meets a fashion show on prom night!

Whether you are a beginner sewist and want to show off your very first make-- whether it is a tote bag or pajama pants--or are a seasoned sewist and plan on making a ball gown-- we will celebrate you!

Frocktails is an opportunity to spend a few hours with several of your newest creative friends, admire each others' sewing project, show yours off, and have a really great time.
