For this year the workshops will be held in the Summit Room of the church.
You are encouraged to put your name on the waiting list for classes. Many people sign up who find that they have to cancel and if your name is on the waiting list I can contact you. We don’t want to have empty seats in the classroom if you want to join us. I have had as many as 7-10 people who have indicated interest and then not been able to attend for various reasons.

Learn how to make a stylish carryall or tote bag. Kiss your dreary briefcase, laptop carrier or purse goodbye! Students will select from three pattern options for this class. You can choose from the laptop computer carrier, the executive carryall, or the bookin‘ it bag. Students will need a pattern ($10), a finishing kit ($15) and the headliner foam ($7.50-$20 depending on bag style) for this class. You may also purchase a complete kit. Details will be available at the workshop table or on the supply list on the web site. Students will be encouraged to cut out their bags and begin quilting before class. You must register for the class, but may order directly from the instructor‘s web site or place order at the workshop table.
