I don’t know about you, but it seems like we JUST had our June Sew Fun sessions!  (Check out some of the great pictures posted on June 30 from the sessions on our Facebook Page). Time does fly when you are having “sew” much fun! Our Christmas in July Sew Fun events kick off at our Aurora store on Tuesday, July 18.  As always, our Sew Fun presenters have whipped up a variety of projects to share with you. They will be showing you some great projects that you can make for gifts or use for yourself.

Amethyst Project Bag

Projects we’ll show you include an Amethyst Project Bag. This bag features ample storage space for any project or hobby – quilting, drawing, hand-sewing, and so much more! The lining features a zippered pouch, mesh zippered pocket, and elastics for holding pens or other items. The bottom of the case has an elastic buckle strap to hold quilt blocks, books, and rulers.This is a great gift for your quilter friend, and you’ll probably want to make one for yourself.  This bag is perfect for carrying your latest project to a Rocky Mountain Open Sew session or to your quilting club.

Seasonal Table Toppers

Traditional and whimsical designs to fit any taste are featured in this book of table décor for any time of year. Table toppers are a great way to make everyday meals feel like special occasions. The themed sets in this guide reflect the four seasons plus Christmas through 20 easy-to-make projects, including table runners, placemats, napkin rings, coasters, and other accessories. The patterns make use of fat quarters, small pieces of fabric stash, and appliqué accents. You can customize these to match any color scheme. Photographs and diagrams abound in this helpful how-to for beginners and experienced sewers alike.
