A Little Fabric Store

It has been excited and busy, and I have not gotten to write much on my blog. The last summer before my oldest goes to school and I am trying to do lots with him. We went to the beach last weekend. Very nice! If anyone is looking for a good clean beach in Texas visit Surfside Beach near Freeport. I give it two thumbs up!  Back at the store we have been busy with classes. Lots of interest in beginning class. It always seems that I get in the middle of class and remember about the camera to take a pic. But it has been crazy and no pictures have been taken. Just image 8 people all excited and sewing bags with two sewing machine. (some were first time sewers!!) WOW! What a class, I was definelty tired after that one! We have made pillowcases, pot holder, pincushions and looking for more things to make. The other class that we have coming up is a t-shirt decorating class. Any ideas other there of what else we could make?

Busy making the samples and setting the dates for classes this summer. I hope that lots get to come and enjoy!

First off I so excited to say that every Tuesday Night will be dedicated to Scrapbooking and Stamping!!!!

Yeah! I am starting to get my stuff organized so I remember what I have. I don’t know what I am going to start on first because I am so behind!

Kids Classes will start on June 16th with the Heather Bailey’s Square Deal Pincushion. Super Cute and Super Easy to start with and an essential that you need when sewing!

The following week June 23rd we will try our hand at making pot holders. Just to get use to the machine and different stitches.

You can catch the corner of the pot holder. That class starts at 2:00.

We will also be sewing pillowcases, back by popular demand.

June 30th at 2:00

There will also be adult classes in there also. We will be attempting to complete the Old Glory by July 4th. 

Classes start on June 12th. You will need to get your fabric before to cut your pieces.

June 18th will be a Stars and Stripes Table Runner. Really Fun!

We will even start to get ready for the fall with a Pumpkin Paper piecing on June 27th starting at 10:00.

This class will be taught by Martha Ward. We will break for lunch and be finished by 2:00 pm. The class and supplies are $25.00.

If you are interested in any or all of the classes please let me know. I would love to have you come to my home and sew!

We started a series of classes last night for quilting. It was interesting and as always I forgot to take pictures. I thought teaching young kids is demanding, adults can be equally as demanding. Ha Ha!

I let my son Ethan pick out the fabric for the sample. I almost am sorry about that that because I really like the others that picked flowers and such. Ethan picked the racecars.

I am not threw with all the project yet. Here are some of them that I finished

Tuesday March 3 at 6:30 or Thursday March 5th at 1:00

You can make a jelly roll bag/tote. I used the Hill Country Spring Jelly Roll because that is the one that Ethan unrolled for me. Thanks!

 This is a very very fun and fast bag to make. Simple and so cute. I have another that I bought from a friend that was made out of John Deere fabric. It is the perfect size for a little diaper bag. This class will be March 18th at 1:00 or 6:30. It should only take two hours. 

I also have planned a class for shopping bags. They are made with fruit and vegetable fat quarter and you will looked upon with envy by other shoppers when you carry your things with these.                                                                   

I had a great time last week with the two classes that I offered. The first was the pillowcase and the second was a trick or treat candy bucket made with Stampin Up products.  Next month will be busy with classes. I am posting pictures of the projects that I have finished and will be offering. Call if you are interested in any of these.

Check my website under the friends tab for class dates and times. There are a few others also more pictures to follow.

Thanks SEW much!
