Diaper Changing Station Class

                            Changing Station Assembly Class: Friday, March 2nd @ 530-8:30
Instructor: Breezi Kohrman
Class Fee: $10 + Supplies
 This compact kit is perfect for changing baby on the go. The attractive wallet style clutch unfolds into a large, padded changing pad with plenty of pockets to store all the essentials. The pad removes for easy laundering or to allow the clutch to be used separately. An outer zippered pocket holds personal items and a handy flap closes the folded clutch keeping everything contained.

You can also make the fabric  of your choice into vinyl fabric to make the pad have an easy clean option. We'll show you how!

The clutch and the pad need to be quilted in order to have a better result. Since this takes time, we are offering a seperate time slot on Thursday, March 1st from 5:30-8 to come and do the quilting. If you don't have this pre-class homework completed and choose to spend your class time quilting your changing station, you won't get very far on finishing your project in class. We will be showing techniques on straight line quilting, free motion quilting, and also using the Westalee Quilting Rulers. There are many options, so don't be afraid to try them!  If this date doesn't work for your schedule, please call us and we can make arrangements for you to get quilting instructions at another time. 983-0254



 
**Each class has a Supply List. There may be additional class costs for special sewing supplies, such as patterns, or special rulers, etc.  Fabric requirements will be listed.  Once you register for your class and receive your Supply List, you will qualify to receive a 15% discount on all required supplies. To receive the discount, you must have your Supply List with you when you make your purchase.   NOTE:  Students are required to have their own patterns and tools during classes.  This enables the classes to stay on the curriculum schedule rather than having the class wait while students borrow supplies from each other.**
