DROP with

Debbie

While this wonderful design shines creating a harmonious ring of pieced wreaths in fes-tive greens for Christmas, it would be equal-ly beautiful in any color combination for other seasons. The sewing is simple: strip piecing for the majority of the block, plus a little stitch and flip for the diagonal piecing. The magic is in the triangles that pinwheel. They look difficult and small, but they are easy and fun! Available in multiple sizes, including a wall hanging of just 4 blocks. Us-es “Folded Corner Clipper”. # 676

Date: Friday evening October 23 & Novem-ber 6

Time: 5:30-9 PM * Class: $60 + supplies

Laminated fabrics are versatile and easy to

sew. In this class you will be laminating

fabric and then sewing it up and turn it

into bag. The bag has a zipper on top. Once

you made one you will want to make more and give it away as

gifts.

It's quick fast and easy. The finished bag is approximately 7" X

9" and has a zipper on top. # 678

Make a one of a kind unique gro-

cery bag using your empty snack

bags. We will be using clear vinyl to

fuse to the front and back of the

tote.

This tote is lamented in vinyl on the

inside also making it easy to clean.

We will be adding decorative stitch-

es on the strap to make it a truly

unique tote. The finished bag size is

approximately 18" X 18". Bags with a plastic type finish work the

best. I.e. potato chips, Ramen noodles, and etc. The more color

you have the more colorful it will be. Please remove any oils on

the bag by wiping them down prior to class. #677

Time: 9:30-4

This quilted silk evening clutch is simple to make and

yet very elegant.

We will start by quilting the fabric and then ill be couch-

ing with a decorative thread. Hotfix crystals will be add-

ed to the fabric. The magic happens when we press the

Hotfix crystals in place and at the same time the fabric

will shrink 30 % from the original starting size giving it

the one of a kind elegant look.

We will then take the fabric and turn it into a lined

evening clutch—perfect for the holidays! The finished

clutch is approx. 13” X 17”.

All supplies will be provided for you in the kit including

the Silk Dupioni, thread and crystals. #679
