Off to sewing class

Every Thursday I go to the Senior Center for sewing class.  We use to have a teacher through the community college system but she moved.  We enjoyed each others company so much and could teach each other that we continue to meet weekly.  Some of us quilt, some just come and visit awhile, others sew clothes, purses and just about anything.  Today I am making tote bags that I learned from an online course provided by http://craftsy.com.  Be sure and check out the site for all kinds of classes.  I am not hauling my sewing machine but will cut the fabric pieces out and then sew them at home.

I find a lot of the vintage sewing books have great beginner directions.  I found this book the other day at a thrift store.  Well I had better get out of my recliner and get ready for class.
