Tulip Time! Just finished up this sample for an upcoming class. Lots of fun piecing and using these gorgeous fabrics from the new company, "Dear Stella". The class is scheduled for Friday, April 2oth, from 10:30 to 3:30. We will have kits available or you can select your own colorway! A nice way to use up your stash too! A cheerful addition to any wall...this quilt shouts SPRING!
Jessica from "Sew Many Creations" has taken her clutch pattern to a new level! This bag is crisply pleated and inside there is a zippered pocket. Jess provides all the hardware and tools to make this bag. Two contrasting fat quarters and some decor bond are all you need. This class is scheduled for Saturday, April 14th at 12:30 pm. Every student leaves with a completed bag. Jessica will have extra frames on hand so you can make more bags on your own!
On Saturday, May 12th at Noon, Jessica will be teaching her latest pattern "The Diva Frame Wallet". This wallet has tons of storage space and sports a handsome frame which is included in the class fee. Again, 2 fat quarters are all you need to make this great fashion accessory!
Judith will be teaching the best tote bag ever...using "Sew Many Creations" Tourist Tote Pattern on Wednesday, April 25th from 10:30-3:30. She made this one in some of our Dear Stella Fabric. Here is the inside lining...
Here is another tote in our Heirloom fabric from Dear Stella...
Blue, white, gray...so sophisticated! Here is the lining...
We have a few spots left in this class so hurry, sign up ASAP! These make great beach bags, knitting bags, diaper bags and more. Pockets can be added as well!
Details for upcoming classes are on our website.
