A Funny Little Backpack Full Of Techniques June 6



In this full day class taught by Bernina Educator Shelly Fitzgerald you will create a cute little backpack and learn a variety of unique techniques that you can apply to many other future projects. We will use decorative stitch manipulations, free motion couching, double welt pockets with a zipper, top stitching through 6 to 14 layers, french seams, sewing buttons on with a sewing machine and easy casing for cords and t-shirt yarn. 

Take this class and learn or hone your skills on all of these different techniques, plus walk away with memories and a completed project!

All supplies and machines are provided, so all you have to bring is yourself! 

We will take a break mid day for lunch. You are welcome to leave for lunch or bring a sack lunch with you. We have a fridge available if cold storage is needed.
