The Holiday rush has calmed down, whew!  We have some cool class projects this week for kids and adults…excellent for a little “mom and me” time during school break.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Glove Puppies are a fun little plushie made from cotton gloves. All supplies will be provided in the two hour class. (Isn’t he cute?)  Join us for this class on December 29th, 12-2pm. Please call ahead to pre-register!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fleecie Hoot Owl is another great plushie that you can personalize! Made from fleece, this is an easy sew two hour project. All supplies are provided. Class meets December 30th, 12-2pm.

 

  

 

 

 

 

The Jellyroll Pillow is a cute accessory for any home.  Get a jump on spring decorating and  learn to create a unique look by sewing strips of coordinating fabrics together to create this envelope style pillow case.  This will give you plenty of ideas for other projects using this technique, like placemats, potholders, casserole covers, etc.  Supplies for the pillowcase are included for the class, but this is a great stash buster project, too!  (All those leftovers from Holiday projects?)  December 31st, 12-2pm.

Each class is $25 or sign up for all three classes for $60!  ** Please call ahead to preregister for these events. Remember, these classes are a great activity for all ages and skill levels. Bring a friend or your kids! What a fun family activity! Don’t forget about our Stitch Cleveland Gift Cards. Sold in any denomination, it’s the perfect gift for any stitcher on your list!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, one of our old favorites makes a return to the schedule! PJ Clinic! During this three hour class you will use a pattern to create your own pair of pajama pants. These are a great gift… or you can be stingy and keep them for yourself. Cost for the class is $55 and includes fabric and all supplies to complete the project. Please make sure to call ahead and preregister for class, don’t forget to let us know if you need a machine. This class is great for a beginner sewer. Join us on December 23rd from noon-3pm or on Janary 2nd from 1-4pm. 

We are looking forward to seeing you during the holiday season! Stay stitchy!

Thank you!

Bazaar Bizarre Cleveland was lots of fun this weekend — thanks for coming out to the show! We met a lot of fun new people who were wondering just where Stitch Cleveland is located — and now they know!

This was first thing Sunday morning! (Forgot my compact flash card Saturday). You can only see half the vendors.

Friend of Stitch Cleveland Xan is a stiltdancer. Little kids flock to her like candy when she’s up in the air. It was fun to watch — she never wears the same costume twice, she’s always made something different.

Did you visit the show? What did you think?

Forget Santa! BazBiz is coming to town

Stitch Cleveland is a sponsor of fantastic indie craft show Bazaar Bizarre Cleveland, which is coordinated by our own Shannon Okey. Come out on the 13th or 14th of December and get all your holiday shopping done at once, from us and from 70+ other vendors. There’s even gift wrap on site. If you haven’t been to the show before, you don’t know what you’re missing!

There will also be a sit-and-knit charity knitting event on site, organized by the James Rhodes High School National Honor Society, so if you have excess yarn to donate or just want to help out, come by!

Need knitting lessons first? Give us a call!
