Classes and Samples

We have a few new classes coming up and I think the umbrella class might just be the perfect option for our recent rainy weather!  We hope you have some great sewing projects lined up that keep you occupied until the gardening season truly arrives.  And if you happen to be out of projects...you can get some blocks prepared and create a gypsy bag in no time.  These are versatile projects - you can mix up the fabric options and bag sizes to create some great variations.  

Gypsy Carry-All Bag with Suz Litzsinger


During this class, you will learn how to make your own Gypsy Carry-All Bag. There are several options to create this bag: you can use panels or pieced blocks, either quilted or not. This class focuses on the construction of the bag, so bring your blocks to class ready-made and spend the day stitching everything together! Pattern includes instructions for three different bag sizes.

Saturday, April 2nd

Class Fee: $30 (includes bag instructions)

Umbrella Class with Joan Buse


During this unique class, you will get to create your own custom umbrella. The class fee includes the pattern and frame. You choose the fabric, batiks make a great rainbow of color - you can choose a traditional print and dress it up with some trim, ore even use laminated fabrics for a truly waterproof option.  Lots of ways to put your personal style into it. Make one for yourself or as a one-of-a-kind gift!

Here is our latest shop sample that Sharon stitched up for us, the pattern is called Richmond and it is by Red Crinoline Quilts. The sample features lots of reproduction striped prints, and a great mitered stripe border.  We have layer cakes of the Historical Stripe fabrics so you can get alot of variety without alot of fabric.  There are also several great bold stripe border options available so come in and check out the fabulous color choices.  This project finishes at about 70 inches square so not too big and not too small to get on your project list.
