Birdie Sling

Here is Lisa in for a sewing lesson making the Birdie Sling from an Amy Butler Pattern. This was her first sewing project on her new machine she received for Christmas from her husband. I think she may be hooked on sewing.

After an evening of great conversation, a lot of cutting, and some sewing, Lisa finished her Birdie Sling. I love the fabrics she choose. The main fabric is Anna Maria Horner Sketch Book in Rose and the handle is Joel Dewberry Wood Grain in dark green.
This is the bag I finished. I used Anna Maria Horner Sketch Book in Blue and Amy Butler Full Moon Polka Dot in Slate. This is a great bag to sew. You learn quite a lot of techniques in one project. And the finished product is huge, you could carry a small child in it.

They're Stuffed!

Our class has come to an end. Every one of us had so much fun. The end results turned out fantastic. We can't wait to make more and more gum drops.

Diane's pillow with Amy Butler fabric. I love the fun polka dots!

Melany's pillow. She choose beautiful fabric.

First we cut, then we sew, next we stuff

Part two of our Gumdrop class. Last time we cut all the pieces and pinned them together. This time we sewed the gumdrops. By the end of the night they were done with the sewing and the pillows looked FABULOUS! Next, we stuff the gumdrops. We can't wait to see the end result.

Christmas Stocking Class

Another great and fun class at Stash. Diane and Cheryl are getting a head start on their Christmas stockings. Diane chose a beautiful green color from Manos called malachite. Cheryl's is an amazing Manos red variegated wool named flame!

Making Gumdrops!

Have I told you gumdrops can be addicting? Well, we've hooked others on 'em too. Stash had a class and three very wonderful gals joined in on the fun. Our goal: to have the whole world covered in gumdrops of every size and color.

Diane oh so carefully tracing the pattern for her gumdrop. The polka dots are too cute and will look great in the end!

Melany was so excited for this class, she couldn't wait to get started on this, and another one, and another one...

Miss Stephanie was walking through the Barn with her husband on date night and ditched him for the gumdrop. I shouldn't say "ditched" that's not very nice! Although, she did ask him very politely if she could stay for the class instead of going to dinner. As you can see he said yes. What a nice husband.
