Check out the fine detail in this tote bag that Jessica, one of our instructors, made.  She sketched the silhouette of the Dandy Lion, then used a heat bond to set it in place.  What detail, and what a great job.

Plenty of detail and hard work Jena put into sewing this difficult back-pack. There were 12 pattern pieces to cut out and then sew together, the bag was lined in black fabric, plenty of snaps and loops were attached, and lots of skinny straps were tri-folded, pressed, and then sewn.  What a professional looking bag she made!

Here is Haley's Alpaca bag. The alpaca on her bag is actually made from alpaca fibers which Haley made into fabric using a wet felting process.

Erika not only designed and made her skirt, she also made her matching pink purse too.

Alyssa made this adorable hot pink and black tiger print fully lined purse.

Catie designed and made this adorable tote bag with no pattern.  She added large buttons on the side and braided the handle.  She used flat-felled seams on the sides of her bag.  GREAT JOB Catie!

Teresa made a fully lined pocket book for her Aunt's birthday present. If you look closely at the tag in the middle, it says, "Handmade with love by Teresa."  Grammies, moms, aunts, and just about any family member loves handmade gifts!!!

Heather finished off the sewing year with making a pirate purse!!!
