FUN & DONE --  June 1 from 1: 30 to 4:30 pm.  Don’t


give your dad another tie or pair of socks this year for his special day when you can make him a really great gift in just a few hours. Come join us and have fun making this great BBQ apron fit for a king. No ruffles, no frills, just raw cooking power. When it’s not in use he can roll it up and it becomes a bag to hold all his grilling tools. Embroidered at the top is a grilling dude with the phrase "Plays with fire". You can even have Dad’s name added to it. Two pockets add to its usefulness. For smiles, one is embroidered with a chicken that says "Eat more beef" while the other is a cow that says "Eat more chicken." Let’s have some sewing fun and make him a gift that he’ll always remember came from you. (Embroidery will be done in advance.)
