March Creative Workshop!

There is a Women’s Tea scheduled for March 8th, which is our normal ‘2nd Saturday’, so we moved our March Creative Workshop to March 15th.  It will be from 9:30 – 2:00 pm, and these are the new lessons:

Sewing:

We’ll be doing a quilt by Fons & Porter called Junctures!   On page 5 of the pattern is the fabrics requirements for a baby/lap size quilt, or see below.  They are listed as black, white and gray, but you can use any color theme you would like!  Think of them as light, medium and dark!   You could also mix colors, such as red/pink/purple, or blue/green/aqua!  I think the stripe adds to the charm of this quilt, so try picking that first, then find coordinating colors!   Please feel free to use your imagination!

Stripe: 1 yard
Light print: 1 fat quarter
Dark print: 1 fat quarter
Medium print: 5/8 yard
Backing: 1 3/8 yards

Crochet:

We will be doing three different patterns for crochet pocket scarves.  Please bring size H crochet hook, and in worsted weight yarn, 7 ounces of your main color, and 2 ounces in a contrasting color.  The contrasting color will be for a stripe in the scarf, and the cuff of the pocket.

 

Jireh Sports

We are working on Jireh Sports hats & scarves!   The meter is up for keeping tally of how many are made on the Jireh Sports Progress page.   Check back periodically to track how many we have so it will be easy for you to see what we still need.   Our goal will be to have most of them made by the end of Summer, so we don’t have a ‘crunch’ time in November and December.

What Project do You want to Work On?

We offer lessons in sewing/quilting and knitting/ crochet every month!   Please remember that regardless of the ‘lessons’ at a particular Workshop, please do come and work on any project you would like!  Come be a part of the social time, we want you there to enjoy the fellowship!   So, you may work on the lessons, or any other project you would like.   See the Current Projects and Patterns pages to see all of the Projects!  We have several that are ongoing, and you’re welcome to work on any of them.

    May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands.
