To clear up any misconceptions

It has come to my attention the class I was supposed to teach at The Original Sewing and Quilting Expo in Pittsburgh, that I was told would be cancelled, is now being taught by someone else. I am very sorry but, for reasons that are beyond my control, I won't be teaching the class I proposed. I want to clarify this was not my choice as I offered to teach the class regardless of whatever else was going on in my life. I will probably offer MY class in a local shop at some point, in the not too distant future, so send me an email if you want to be notified when it is scheduled. larkspurlanedesigns@yahoo.com

Sewing and Quilting Expo coming to Pittsburgh!

In case you haven't heard, The Original Sewing and Quilting Expo is coming to Pittsburgh for the first time! The show is August 2, 3 and 4, 2012 and registration for classes has begun. Lots of big name teachers and wonderful classes! I even have the opportunity to teach my tips and tricks for paper piecing with directional fabrics!

Pictured above is my project. They are ornaments with a little pocket in the back where you can hide a gift card or other small gift for someone special. Both ornaments are made with the exact same fabric but used in different positions. If you've ever wanted to use a directional fabric in a paper piecing project but found it difficult to get it just right I can show you how!
