Sew Your Own Sneakers

In this cross-over class between Stash and Quilters’ Corner, we combine garment/accessory making with quilting- and the result is a quilted sneaker that you will get endless compliments on! Join Susan Bruce of Quilters’ Corner at Stash on Friday, August 15th to learn step-by-step how to make your own sneakers. The sneaker kit and pattern is included in the the price of the class. Kit includes, instruction booklet, laminated pattern, custom sized-soles, eyelets, waxed thread, heavy hand-needle, foam, and interfacing. Note: Due to special ordering custom soles, this class is non-refundable! You will be required to pre-quilt the sneaker bodies before class.

Registration for this class closes July 15th, so please register early.  This is to allow time for ordering kits.
