Novembers workshop is no sew Christmas ornaments. If you haven’t signed up yet I encourage you to join us. We will be making at least 7 different ornaments. Cost is 20 dollars for workshop (have to pay for the church you know) and 5 dollars for the kit which will include almost everything you will need to create these beautiful treasures.

All you need to bring is:
Glue gun.  (If you don’t have one I’m sure people will share)
Glue sticks

Any embellishments you would like and spare bits of ribbon

Bring your lunch.
We will have refreshments and fun, fun, fun

One of the members brought in her Mondo bag at the last meeting… I absolutely loved it!
I’ve tried to look online at YouTube… Is the pattern from “QuiltSmart”?
I would love to make one… Can someone please point me in the direction for the pattern?
