 Sunday Afternoon with Lisa   This Sunday, January 8, 2012    1-4pm

 

I think that you will enjoy this class.  A customer showed me the book "10 Minute Blocks 2" and it is a fun technique.  What you need to bring is 16-10" squares.  We will be making 3 variations of the blocks.  Two of the blocks require 5-10" squares and the other block requires 6-10" squares.  This might help you in deciding what fabrics to bring.  Check out the book below.  The class is $10 and we will have books available for purchase.  You can also bring some of the projects you started in the Sunday classes to finish or if they are already finished, then share them with us.  We'd love to see them and YOU!  Please pre-register for this class by phone or email.
