Not long ago, I walked into Joann’s to purchase some fabric, having no idea something wonderful was about to happen!
A lovely tall woman was at the front door, passing out flyers for their classes. She asked me if I would be interested in sewing classes. SEWING CLASSES?! Poor thing, I almost tackled her! I’ve been looking for sewing classes! How exciting! Her name is Linda, and I really hope she doesn’t get a restraining order against me!
She asked what I wanted to learn first. French Seams! Linda told me that was taught in their pillow case class, and she created a class time just for me, right there, on the spot! It was a great learning experience and four other sweet ladies took it with me! One pillow case was made in class, and because I was excited and am a complete goober needed practice, I made a total of six pillow cases in one weekend! 😉
These photos show two of them. I can’t quite decide which toss pillows I prefer with them.
Of course, my favorite decorative pillows are furry and have spots. AND they mess up all the other pillows! That’s Ivan, the snuggliest little dog ever.
Teaser: I’ve already taken another sewing class and can’t wait to tell you about it!
What fun things have you been creating?
