Strip Piece Applique Towels
2026-03-18 10:00 - 13:00, 2026-03-20 10:00 - 13:00
Spring has arrived! This is a great time to create these beautiful towels to display in your home at this time of year.
You will be creating your applique fabric by choosing fabrics in pastels or coordinating colors to complement your home. The strips will be made by running through a bias tape maker as you press with an iron. The pressed strips will then be placed side by side and pressed to a fusible interfacing and using a decorative stitch will be sewn down between the strips for an added feature. This new fabric that has been created will then be used as the fabric for the applique heart, shamrock, egg, bunny or the “Made with Love” heart. The five designs will be complimentary at the time of class with a value of $25.00.
Four designs require a 5″ x 7″ hoop, but the “Made with Love” heart will need a 6″ x 10″ hoop.
The towel can be purchased at the time of class, or you may bring a towel you may already have.
The class has limited seating available.

I Love to Sew - March
2026-03-19 11:00 - 13:00
This month, I will be demonstrating how fast and easy it is to make a Sew Simple Wallet, a by Annie pattern. This pattern has three pocket versions, one, two and three. They are perfect to carry cash, credit cards, loyalty cards, coupons and more. The single pocket version is great to tuck a gift card in for someone special. For the flap closure I’ll be showing the By Annie’s Tool-Free Snaps, that are the newest sewing notion that makes installing a snap. No more pliers, hammers or sewing needle and thread needed. There will also be other project samples that are quick and useful that use these incredible snaps.
Be sure to place this date on your calendar and please bring a show and tell to share with others.

FABRIC WEAVING
Do you remember in elementary school using construction paper and weaving strips of paper through pre-made slits that resulted in a placemat? We will be visiting this method, but using fabric. I will demonstrate making strips out of fabric, prepare the surface for weaving and how to weave a couple layout patterns. This gives a great opportunity to use up scraps or design a fabric for a special project. The fabric can be used for pillows, bags, placemats, totes, zipper pouches, yoke for clothing, potholders and so much more.
Please bring a project or two to share during show and tell!
