CLASSES:

Don't forget to check out our classes on the website.  We still have space in all three classes from Sandy Arthur. 

Thursday, August 29, features "Ribbons and Such".  This technique class will help you learn multiple ways to manipulate not only silk ribbon, but ribbon like threads.  The possibilities for future application are endless.  Cost: $135 (includes all materials, instruction and lunch) 

Friday, August 30, features "Beads Galore".  This technique class will teach you tons of beading techniques and different uses for all types of beads.  Beads are such an easy way to add a little glitz to any piece, this class is just too good to pass up.  Cost: $135 (includes all materials, instruction and lunch)

Saturday, August 31-Monday September 2 feature "What's That, Succulents".  Get ready for a fantastic project class full of threads, stitches and ideas each student will be able to use on future projects. 


Cost: $500 (includes instruction, canvas and lunch)  Deposit of $250 due July 1st.
        Thread kit to be determined. 

I hope to see you all in to stitch soon.  Don't forget about "Fridays with Deb". My "Everything Chanel" is coming along nicely.  I'm getting ready to start week 4 today and love seeing what Kimberly comes up with for a piece that she personally designed.  Check out our Facebook page for weekly updates on my progress.  https://www.facebook.com/stitchersgardenil/    Have a great week and stitch well and often!  Deb
