The Malls are filling with families getting ready for back
to school but there is plenty going on at Sew Have Fun before then!
Aug 9 "Be
Merry" This 6 session Block of the
Month comes together into a lovely 60x75" quilt or 2 Wall hangings and as
you can guess the theme is festive...but not too festive, it is the kind of
project that you can hang most of the winter; we love that! Pattern $25 (one time charge), each kit is $25.
We really have Christmas on the mind because August 10 is
our Christmas Club. It is never too late to join this dynamic
group and get a head start on your Christmas sewing! This week's project is a lovely blue, white
and silver wallhanging, 1-3pm. Cost of
kit is $19.99
For something a little more seasonal join us for the class "Butterfly in Flight" If you are nervous of free motion you will
learn some techniques to help you overcome your fears! Class and kit is $40, August 13 1:30-4 or
Saturday, Aug 17, 1:30-4. Bring your walking foot, Free Motion Foot and
1/4" foot and a variety of threads.
It is always a challenge to get everyone up and back on
schedule in the Fall but our cheerful placemats will help start the day off
right! Wednesday, August 14 1:30-3:30 Class and kit is $30 (Makes 4) If
you have the Phillips 10 degree ruler you will love being able to use it for
another project and use some of those decorative stitches on your machine to
embellish your placemats!
If you have never tried 3D work give it a try on Friday,
August 16 1:30-3:30 and make a leaf or flower shaped bowl. If you enjoy
thread painting or want to experiment this is the project for you! Bring your free motion foot and a variety of
threads. $20
Our Scrap Club
meets on Tuesday August 20, usually we meet in the morning but with sewing camp
at that time we have moved to the afternoon

something beautiful!
Another stash buster is the Mondo Bag! This fun class
uses 208 2.5" squares and makes up into a large tote. 1pm, Aug 21

you finish in the time frame)
