Thoughts, musings and information....

Our class schedule is now posted on our website: www.creativesewing.com

From there you can check out what we have to offer and sign up directly on the site. Lots of fun things going on, so come be a part of it.

For Mother's Day a few years ago Mom gave me a set of Feetures, all three volumes, and what a fantastic gift that was. I love being able to pull up pages of information on whatever foot that I'm trying out or learning how to use.

The books are on sale through the month of May for 20% off, which is a great incentive to add them to your sewing library!

Our first session of our Groovy Girls Club was yesterday and we had a good time. We got to have lunch and see a demonstration on the Cash and Carry Bag. Sue showed us a neat way of putting in a zipper that finishes it off nicely. Several ladies are going to come back and sew it out in our FREE SEW session. Just register for a spot on May 10th or 24th to come sew whatever you like with help from us.

Don't forget to come get your Block of the Month, and when you come, bring the completed block with you.

We have a lovely collection of yellows and blues from Moda called Summer Breeze:

We had a full set of jelly rolls and fat quarter packs and we're paring it down bit by bit, so come in soon to get your hands on this happy, lively fabric.

Come see us!

You can stock your gift closet with projects that are as fun to make as they are to give.The club will run for 6 months on the fourth Wednesday of each month.

Make your lunch hour count!

This simple sack stands up when you pack it and then it folds and stows away. Exclusively available at Groovy Girl Club shops! Small size makes a great lunch bag, medium size is about the size of a grocery bag, and a 9" x 13" pan fits perfectly in the large bag. In class you will make the large size and you are going to love it. It's big enough to carry almost anything!
