SUMMARY:Tote Bag Class with Dianne Martini

 Description\nHave scraps? Love bags? Then this workshop is for you! Join D
 ianne for a fun\, hands-on session where you'll learn how to turn your fav
 orite scraps—or even those orphan quilt blocks—into a fun and versatil
 e bag complete with a few pockets which would be perfect to hold a gift ca
 rd or\npersonal note.  Dianne will guide you through every step\, from cr
 eating your own fabric to sewing the finished bag. The basic design is sim
 ple to make and can be easily modified to create different sizes. Want to 
 take it up a notch? More experienced sewers can try adding a zipper\, inco
 rporating French seams\, using half-square triangles (HSTs)\, or exploring
  other creative variations.  Come sew\, create\, and give those scraps a 
 fabulous new purpose!\n\nSkill Level\nConfident Beginner - Participants sh
