On June 4th we will create one of a kind lampshades using antique frames, vintage lace, notions, gorgeous fabrics, buttons, and more. Wait until you see the baskets of supplies we have for you to work with! If you want to bring your own items along please do (perhaps you know that red is your color or that you want your mama's best hankie stitched on).
Laid-back appliqué is a method for securing pieces of fabric and oddments to a background fabric using simple decorative stitches for creating everything from chiffon scarves to lampshades. Learn how to use these decorative hand stitches to add details to your next project.
Instructors: Rebekka Boysen, Katy King
* Skill level: Beginner
* Class Fee: $20
* Supplies: Kit fee $25 (includes all materials for creating the lampshade on display in store).
* Time: Thursday, June 4th 7:00pm–9:00pm
* Location: MaryJanesFarm Store, 210 E. Sherman, Coeur d’Alene, ID

Hey Rebekka,
I even found the perfect pattern for my saturday.. 1920's traveling dress...I even found some vintage material for it.. Now to find the time to sew it.. I may have to enlist my grandma. I think I will be making the hat in the newest issue of the magazine to go with it as well... I will bring it all and show you all at the class..... Love it when a plan comes together....

Rene- I am over the moon about you joining us, I think Vickie might come as well. We will sure miss the rest of you! By the way- I heard you have a great new haircut. I am inspired and so I will go to my gal in Spokane before the class- hopefully my cut will be as 'roaring' as yours for Farm Fair;)
See you SOON, R |

Rebeccca you are right about Katy not only is she a knockout beauty, those hands are awesome, I am emptying the sewing house so if I have anything you need let me know. Will send you some more lace for your daughter. I am definately retiring this year only going to do my dolls and critters.

Rest assured there will be pictures;) Who else is joining us for this class? Those of you who want to come early and get dinner or a glass of vino before will have lots of fun places to choose from. Katy, our Styling and Design Diva, will be coming with me and she has lots of fun tricks up her sleeves for embroidery. Mary Jane says she tats so fast her hands fly, I have seen it and Katy is awesome to learn from- there is literally nothing she hasn't tried! I can't wait for you to meet her.
See you all soon, Rebekka |
