Sewing Cafe Update- January

I am very excited about the projects and classes that I have planned for this year!  On Thursday, January 24th from 6 to 8 pm, we will be making a reusable grocery bag- two actually- and a carrier.  Please call Bernina Sew & Quilt Waco, TX at 254-772-2887 to reserve your spot in the class.

Supplies:
  • 1 yard of 44-45" wide cotton fabric for Bag 1 exterior and Bag 2 lining
  • 1 1/4 yard of 44-45" wide cotton fabric for Bag 1 lining, Bag 2 exterior, and carrying case

    NOTE: the pattern we are going to use is sized to fit Fat Quarters.  If you decide to use Fat Quarters, you will need two for each bag lining, two for bag exterior and one for the carrying case.
  • scrap of sew-on Velcro
  • all purpose thread to match fabric
  • Iron and ironing board
  • Scissors or rotary cutter and mat
  • Seam gauge
  • Seam ripper
  • Straight pins
  • Hand sewing needle
Each bag measures 12"x12"x5"- a great size to hold your groceries or whatever you need a cute bag for.  The carrying case is perfect to get the bags at arms reach in your car or purse so you are never without a bag.

Check back this weekend for pictures of what we will be creating!
