Embroidery Workshop- Cutwork Needles Teacher: Jane McMurray
Date: Saturday, May 27
Time: 1pm-5pm
 
So your top-of-the-line machine came with the INSPIRA Cutwork Needles but you don't have any idea how to use them. In this class, we will work with a design built into your machine and Jane will walk you through the use of these wonderful needles which actually cut the fabric away during the embroidery process.  So, be sure to join in to learn this embroidery technique.

Embroidery Workshop  
In the Hoop Cross-Body Bag       
Teacher: Jane McMurray
Date: Saturday, June 10
Time: 10:30am-5pm (don't forget your lunch!)
 
Would you like to learn to stitch a wearable cross-body bag and only use the embroidery function of your machine? If so, let's join the craze! Using an embroidery design, we will work through the multiple parts to stitch a cross-body bag with 2 zippers all in-the-hoop.
 
You must purchase the design from Embroidery Garden (CRSSBDYBGS) before coming to class.
