Recap of August
Demo: Fabric Christmas Ornaments
| Remind me NEVER to take
vacation when 1st Thursday meets! This demonstration
was a smashing success! We had a large group and everyone
went home with an ornament.
|
| |
Rose provided each person with an 'Ornament Kit'.
Hard to believe, 200 Pins and 3 colors of fabric could
produce something so beautiful!
If you missed this meeting
Rose is now teaching this as a
class at Red Hen!
