About this Event
This useful sized tote bag is great for everyday use or what a wonderful gift for someone this Christmas.
Once you’ve made one you will be eager to make more, using different themes, Summer/Autumn etc.
We will make a large patchwork front pocket using the ‘quilt as you go’ technique and instead of a magnetic snap closure there is a recessed zipper for extra security. Using fusible fleece will make the bag more robust and will last a long time with daily use.
Skill level : Basic sewing machine skills required.
You will need:
- 1/2 metre of upholstery weight, Wool, Wool mix fabric
- 1/2 metre of lining fabric
- 1/2 metre of Fusible fleece
- 20cm of 4 different quilting cottons ( Christmas theme or other)
- 20” dress zip
- Matching main fabric thread
Janome sewing machines will be provided on the day along with a hot drink. You will also receive a 10% discount card to use in-store.

I am passionate about sewing and crafting.
I have been involved with sewing and dressmaking for all of my working life and nothing gives me greater pleasure than passing on my knowledge to people who want to learn to sew. I enjoy sewing, dressmaking, all types of craft and especially machine embroidery.
I have been working at the abakhan store in Shrewsbury since it opened its doors in 2018.
