Discover the art of crafting a stylish Crossbody Style Bag using double-faced quilted fabric in this hands-on workshop. This versatile bag is designed to be the perfect everyday carryall, with a long strap that crosses the body from shoulder to hip for added security and convenience.

In this class, you’ll learn how to create a functional and fashionable bag featuring three pockets with zipper closures. We’ll teach you the technique to make two zippers from one.

 

Add a personal touch with embellishments, combining threadwork such as decorative stitches and couching with raw edge applique to create a truly unique handbag. This project is fat quarter friendly, allowing you to experiment with different fabric patterns and colors.

 

Each student will complete a one-of-a-kind bag, using Linda’s favorite techniques and discovering new possibilities for thread embellishment. You'll have the chance to explore various thread weights and familiarize yourself with additional buttons and feet on your sewing machine. We’ll guide you through inserting zippers quickly and efficiently, making this a fun and rewarding adventure with thread, fabric, and machine.

 

By the end of the class, you’ll walk away with a beautifully crafted bag, ideal for carrying your Kindle, iPad, or everyday essentials. Join us for an enjoyable and creative experience as you enhance your sewing skills and create a standout accessory that’s both functional and fashionable.
