Do you read Made By Rae? If you don’t, you should. She has wonderful tutorials, amazing photographs, and super cute kids. She also give out free patterns, as well as a few really excellent patterns for sale.

Well she has been so kind as to give me permission to teach a class using her Butter Cup Bag pattern at Craft Akron. If you have used your machine to sew simple items and you want to learn how to sew a lined bag, this is a really awesome class for you to take. The bag is small, so you can use some of that beautiful stash fabric that you haven’t used before, and still have some left over for another project (it only requires two fat quarters of coordinating fabric!).

The class is $40, for 5 hours of instruction over Friday, April 9 and Saturday, April 10. Join us! You will be so glad you did!
