Before I tell you about my new class, a wee update on Dad's Civil War Quilt.
My gorilla arms recovered enough today to get the quilting finished & the binding made.
The binding has been sewn onto the front, and I can now enjoy my favourite stage - hand sewing the binding down onto the back!
Tonight we are looking around my youngest daughter's prospective new school for September, so not sure if I'll get much more sewing done. But hopefully I'll have a finished quilt to reveal by the end of the week.
And now some news for my local readers!
Due to increasing interest from folks wanting to learn how to sew, I'm starting a new class after Easter.
