It’s so much fun creating your own customized accessories. When I was in grade school; I remember seeing girls that made purses out of Capri Sun pouches. I asked where they got it from, and they told me that they made it. I was amazed that they made the purses themselves because it seemed like it would be difficult. It was pretty cool to me that someone could show their creativity through a nifty craft like that. I liked the idea that someone could create a purse in their own style. Not only would you be the only one to have a purse like that, but people would also be impressed that you actually made it yourself.
Now you can have the chance to make an awesome accessory to take to school with you. In Sue Simoncini’s class, A Purse of Patchwork and Denim, you’ll get to make a purse that fits your style. If you were an Activ8er that took at least one of Mrs. Sue’s sewing classes during the summer, then this class is for you. Choose calico fabric patterns and mix with denim to get a look that is unique as you. You’ll be ready to rock your new purse at school on Monday, and show your friends how good you are at sewing. This is also a great opportunity to hang out with your friends, and break your typical weekend routine.
Why hang out at the house on Saturday when you could be sewing a new handbag? All materials will be provided. All you have to bring is a bag lunch and a snack. Remember that this class is for students who have already taken a sewing class. For more information on this class or beginner sewing classes visit ColumbusState.edu/CE or call 706.507.8070.
