Fabulous Fall
Teacher’s Day
Sunday Sept 12
We are going old school this fall with a little fashion
forward — Rug Hooking, Needle Tatting, Doll Making,
Redwork! And more!
There will be several classes that will give you the
chance to spruce up your home for the holidays … new
tree skirts, new table runners. How about a bed
runner? They are the new hot trend this season! Why
not make some gifts for family and friends this year?
How about knitted gifts this year? We have several
terrific knitting classes … felted mittens and clogs or
learn how to knit and make scarves for everyone on
your list.
We are pleased to welcome a new teacher to our group,
award winning fabric artist Mary Diamond . If you
haven’t already seen her quilts, then you are going to
be amazed, they are incredible!
It is going to be a fabulous fall filled with new
clubs and events. We look forward to sharing it
with all our quilting & knitting friends…
