1st Friday Stitch Play with Lorna

Rev up your sewing machine, we are getting ready for a whole new sewing adventure!  Join us for the 1st Fridays of each month as Lorna guides you through a course of 12 projects. You can take all the classes or pick and choose the projects you like best.  Each project will make great gifts or decorations around the house and will touch on different sewing skills. Journey with us as we cut, fold, press and stitch.  Some months you will be able to stash bust, some months kits will be available for purchase and some months you might want to pick all new supplies.  Stitch play will be your time to make friends, log some miles with your bestie sewing machine (or use one of ours) and create lovely souvenirs of your sewing journey.
 
Sign up for 6 classes for $220 or all twelve for $410.  Please message us to know which 6 classes you want if you choose that option.
