Upcoming bag class at the Art Station- May 29th, 2011

I am teaching a sewing class on making a shoulder bag as part of the The Arts Station Workshop Series. I was originally going to stick with everyone making the same bag but after feedback from a beginner's sewing session (4 classes) I taught back in March, I decided that having options for people is best. I haven't tried Noodle-Head's 241 Tote pattern as of yet but I love the look. Soon I will get busy and give it a go so I have a sample for the class. Yeah! new bag for me!
