Judy will be teaching two tote bag classes in July and August and she prepared a Smilebox for you to see what the bags look like (up close and personal)...
The Professional Tote Bag is amazing! It has zippered pockets, snap pockets, velcro pockets, pockets for your passport or documents, a place to hide you money, a key fob so you can find your keys quickly and easily, a pocket for your cell phone, side pockets to hold water bottles or an umbrella or baby bottles, room for your lap top or Kindle or iPad, and the list goes on. It even has a pocket to hold file folders so they don't get crushed and wrinkled. This tote would also make a great diaper bag. This 2 session class will meet on July 17 and then again on July 31, each day from 10am until 2:30pm with a 30 minute lunch break. The class fee is $40 plus pattern and supplies.
The second tote class (Square Dance Tote) is being offered as a Beginning Quilting Class but you don't have to be a beginner to want to have this tote for yourself. Throw away all those plastic bags and make yourself a proper tote!! In the class we will cover fundamentals such as cutting, measuring, 4-patches, half-square triangles, flying geese, and sew and flip methods. Judy has lots of tips to make your piecing more perfect-you're sure to learn something new!! We will meet 3 times: July 10, July 24, and August 7, each day from 10am until 2:30pm with a 30 minute lunch break. The class fee is $60 plus a minimal amount of fabric. The pattern is provided by Judy.

This next class isn't a tote bag but it's a very fun class. Sew strips into tubes which will turn into blocks - it's magic!! The Strip Tube Quilt Class is being offered on Tuesday, August 21 from 10am until 2:30pm with a 30 minute lunch break. The class fee is $20 + supplies.
All these classes have samples which can be viewed at the shop. But here is the Smilebox I was telling you about...
