Learn to Sew Your Own Bags Series ~ at Haphazard Quilting
Instructor and Workshop Series Designer: Katrina Geurkink
Haphazard Quilts is excited to announce a new workshop series on
bagmaking. The series will begin with the basics in the first workshop
and offer more advanced techniques in future series workshops.
Workshop #1: Bag Making Basics
Saturday April 20, 2024 8:30am – 3:00pm
Note: the classroom will remain open and the instructor will be available
until 5pm in case you need additional time to complete your tote bag.
Come join us and learn how to create your own stylish tote bag in this
interactive workshop with other people who love to sew and improve
their skills together. Participants will learn basic bag construction and
leave with a solid understanding of how to “build a bag” from scratch.
You will also learn how to add some creative embellishments that
enhance the look and functions of your tote:
-
Creating a decorative pattern on the outside of the tote with contrasting fabrics
-
Adding a lining to your tote to give it a “professional” touch
-
Making three different kinds of pockets, both internal and external
-
Fastening a magnetic metal snap to the top of the bag
-
Adding a key chain leash
-
Personalizing your bag with a unique nametag and/or logo
Workshop participants will need to bring their own machine (in good working order) on the day of the workshop. They will also need to purchase the pattern and the materials on the workshop supplies list, and cut out their fabric prior to class. Fabric and all supplies are available at Haphazard Quilts. There are currently a variety of fabrics for sale that would be perfect for this tote.
Skill Level: Intermediate. You do not need bag making skills/experience to attend this workshop, but you should have intermediate sewing skills and be very comfortable using your own sewing machine.
Cost: $60.00 for the workshop, plus you will need to purchase your own fabric and supplies.
You will receive detailed information (including a supplies list, instructions to cut out your fabric prior to class, etc.) when you register and pay for the workshop.
* All workshops are subject to cancellation or rescheduling by Haphazard Quilts if the need arises. If you are unable to attend a workshop that has been cancelled and rescheduled, your workshop fee will be refunded to your shop account.
** If you need to cancel your registration for a workshop, you must do so two days prior to the date of the workshop. Cancellations without two days notice are not refundable.
