January classes

We are about to start a new year and that means NEW CLASSES!!!!  To sign up or ask questions, call us at 801-266-6942.

First of all, if you haven't checked out our new Block of the Month, here is the info.  Doesn't it look like fun?  Sign up today!

This year, we are introducing some new classes.  This month will be the premiere of our Babylock Serger Feet class.  If you own an Imagine, Enlighten, Evolution or Ovation, come and learn how to use the different presser feet.  This class will be held on the 1st Tuesday.  We will make a different project each month while working with a variety of presser feet.  Don't worry if you don't have the foot already; we will have some for you to borrow.  Call the store to check it out.  The class is $10 which just covers the cost of the project.

On the 3rd Tuesday, we are having our Embroidery In-The-Hoop class.  You don't even have to own an embroidery machine to participate in this class.  You can use one of ours.  A great way to try something new, learn a new technique or simply come and make a cute project.  Cost is $10 plus price of kit (will vary from $5-$15 depending on project).

In our Knit and Crochet class, you can learn that pattern that has been sitting there waiting for a chance to be made.  The teacher can help you learn any stitch and give you the confidence to create something beautiful.  Classes are held monthly on the 4th Tuesday at 5:30 pm.  Fee is just $10.

UFO & Sew - Bring a project and come sew with us.  On the 4th Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm, our classroom is available.  You can work on "secret projects" or just come and have fun with a roomful of fellow sewers.  Cost is just $5.  Room is limited so call a book a spot now.

Learned to sew in Junior High but haven't touched a machine since?  Know how to sew but have questions like how to put in a zipper?  Attend our Adult Sewing class for help.  We even have machines you can use.  Check the calendar for class dates and times.

Make sure to mark your calendar NOW for our Embroidery Club. We meet on the 3rd Saturday at 10.  We show different ideas, projects and techniques.  Fun prizes are given away at each meeting.  Bring a show & tell item.  Who else can really appreciate your hard work like us?  No sign up is necessary.  Just come and have fun!

Beginning sewing with Carolyn – Fleece Jacket

Fleece jackets are wonderful this time of year.  Carolyn will help you modify a pattern to fit just right.  When you call to sign up, make sure to get the suggested pattern numbers.  This is a 2-part class, beginning February 7 at 5:30 and continuing February 21 at 5:30.  Come and learn some new skills with a sewing machine.  If you don't own a machine, we have some classroom ones that you can use.   Cost is $20 plus supplies.

Aprons Aplenty – Sweetheart Apron

Come create this retro apron just in time for Valentine’s Day.  We will be using lots of fun sewing techniques; making our own piping (how nice not to be limited to what is on the store shelves), gathering ruffles, learning to insert godets.  Needless to say, this is a class for those who have a solid sewing foundation.  Be sure to ask for the supply list when you sign up.  Cost is $15 for class and $8 for the pattern.  The class will be held on February 11 from 11-2. 

Knit/Crochet class
Our talented teacher, Ann, can show you how to knit or crochet.  She can even help you read Grandma's old knit hat pattern.  Come give us a try for just $10 per class.  In February, we are meeting on February 20 (5:30-7:30).

Embroidery Club
Want some new ideas for machine embroidery or want to share what you have made?  Join us on February 15 for our Embroidery Club.  We love to see what you have been doing, so don’t forget your show & tell.  We have fun ideas in store for you too.  Anyone can attend - you don't even have to own an embroidery machine, but we want to warn you - after you see all of the fun things you can do, you will want one.  Check out of Facebook page to see what everyone brought in January.

More Classes At Murray

We have two more fun classes at our Murray location this January. We hope you are enjoying this line-up; classes are such a great way to meet new friends, learn new techniques, and complete more projects.

On January 25th, we will have our Snap Bag class from 6-7:30pm. This would make a great gift for yourself or maybe finish a Mother's Day gift early this year!

On January 28th, we will have our Fun & Easy Edges class from 10:30-11:30am. Learn some amazing new crochet edges. You could use this technique on our flannel burp cloths or receiving blankets. They get so much attention at baby showers!
