The book shown here has 27 great projects using this new product. Cindy will teach the tri-color tote bag class on Saturday, July 2. Come by to check out Kraft-Tex! |

THIS WEEK - TWO SPACES LEFT!
10:00 a.m. – 5 p.m. both days
$39, pattern required
This tote features so many pockets, compartments, and zippers that you’ll be the best organized person on your block when you carry it. Big enough to hold a laptop computer, tablet, or good old-fashioned books. Outside pockets on each end are great for a water bottle, umbrella, or phone. This is a two-day class for intermediate and above sewists. In order to complete your tote during the class you will need to do your cutting and fusing ahead of time. LouAnn Burkett – who has now made at least four of these – will be your teacher. Sign up today! |
