Saturday Sewcial  October 4
Make your first Christmas Gift!
Mills Baptist Church  10-2

Due to an event sponsored by the church, we will meet on Oct. 4 this month for our Saturday Sewcial. Judy Crane will be showing us how to make a cosmetic bag (the zipper bag). This will make a great Christmas Gift! So bring your machine, supplies, and lunch for a fun day!

Supply list: 
2 Fat Quarters (one for outside & for lining)
1 nine inch nylon zipper
interfacing for the lining pieces 
fusible fleece for the outside of the bag
To save time, it would be good to cut the 4 pattern pieces and fuse the interfacing to the lining and fuse the fleece to the outside fabric.
Pattern can be found online at Deby  http//:so-sew-easy-.com
Click on Free Patterns then scroll down to "try these fun sewing projects. "  You can also get the pattern here Sew an Easy Cosmetics Bag. Her name is Deby Coles and she also has a tutorial in YouTube.



Thursday Sewing Group

Our Guild members have the opportunity to meet every Thursday for a "Thursday Sewcial" at Mills Chapel Baptist Church from 10:00-2:00. It is a great time to share ideas and socialize while working on projects. Stop in any time and don't forget to bring a lunch. The first Thursday of every month will be dedicated to working on our Compassion quilts.
