GET A ROPE MAKE A BAG

On a previous post I introduced you to Barb who makes these fabulous Clothesline Wrapped baskets that are all over the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Whenever I see a new one, I take a picture and will show them to you today.  Check them out.

Though you will not make one of these large items while in class, you will learn the technique so that you will leave class with the knowledge of how to make one.  These colorful baskets, bags, bowls, coasters, or place mats are made using fabric and cotton clothesline.  Look for an upcoming class in the next Newsletter.

On Another Note:

• Quilters Road Trip will be held during the months of April, May, and June.  Twelve area shops are participating.  You get a chance to win a $25 gift certificate each month at each shop.  Also available will be new projects, patterns and giveaways.  Passports are only $5.

On Another Note:  I've been wanting to make a sewing machine cover and found this pattern at Echinops & Aster.  Really cute!
