A few things you can learn to make at MIW this month!

November 8, 2009 by madeinwindsor

As promised here are a few sample pics of some of the projects being worked on in November MIW classes and workshops.  I’m still waiting for a sample photo of the crocheted purse. Will post as soon as I get it!  See the “All Workshop Information” link to the right for more details on all classes and events.

Take our 3-week beginner’s sewing class 101 and learn to make all 3 of these items (a tissue holder, fabric notebook, purse).  I can hardly believe that 3 weeks is all it will take but the instructor ensures me that will be plenty of time!
