I hope you have all your preparations finished!! There always seems to be some things to be done at the last moment. I wish you all a happy Christmas. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ January Class schedule Saturdays in January 5....10-3 Slow Stitch + Pojagi Korean quilts featuring pojagi stitching are traditionally a single panel of fabric rather than a quilt sandwich layered with batting and backing fabrics. This means that pojagi is a great method for decorative stitching, lending itself to pretty table runners, window sheers, wall quilts, place mats, bed runners and more. We will work on a small sample of this art. I'll supply all you need. $15.00.

It will be Saturday Nov. 10.  Please let me know if you will be attending. I will have kits for you. 10-3, $15.00. In addition to the French mending kit, I will also have a kit for you to do a Japanese dust cloth. It should be informative and fun. Slow Stitching around the world All the stitching we do around the table qualifies as "slow stitching". We visit, we connect, we eat and we form friendships. We are away from daily chores and distractions. To compliment this practice I'd like to offer a day a month to expand on the idea of Slow Stitching.  You can work on any hand work project and in addition, I will give you some stitch examples from a class I took.
