About

This class is geared toward those who have done their own beautiful weaving and are looking to turn the woven cloth into a functional bag to either dress up an outfit, use day-to-day, or to carry your next crafty project.

You'll press, secure, stabilize, and confidently cut your cloth (don’t get too scared here as you'll have successfully prepared your piece for this part).  From there, you'll line your bag, prepare handles, and assemble your new functional beauty!

A lining fabric will be provided. However, to make this much more of your own creation, feel free to bring a full yard of your own lining fabric. This will work if it is a high quality, tightly woven quilter’s cotton. Let the beauty of your weave stand out by having a subtle lining fabric. Not too busy of a print.

Details

  • Skill level: A general understanding of how to use a sewing machine is a must!
  • Feel free to use the BARN machines (you must be certified) or bring your own sewing machine.
  • Esther’s Fabrics in Winslow or Sherry’s Cozy Quilts in Poulsbo can help you if you want to bring your own lining fabric. Also, feel free to reach out to the instructor. 
  • Bring a sack lunch for our 30-minutes refueling break.

Materials

  • A $20 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers stabilizer and thread.
  • You need to bring a piece of woven cloth measuring at least 12 inches by 48 inches. It should be a tight weave with little to no ability to see through the threads.

Class Policies

Ages 14 and up are welcome.
