Good Sunday afternoon friends & folk ~
it is a muggy day here at the farm…
…just staying indoors
and working on the finish for the
CLASS PROJECT
that I mentioned in my last post.
as I mentioned, it will be in October ~
Saturday, October 18th to be exact!!
the project is a 'Thimble Coffin'
something I have been wanting to make but needed to tweak a bit ~
I am hoping to finish this by this evening, then I can share the completed project photos for you to see.
in the meantime, this is where I am with it:
 |
| the stitched portion will be on a box lid… the design is not too involved, but it is stitched on 32ct Old Farmhouse Linen from ©Notforgotten Farm |
the box will be covered in cotton fabric ~
{haven't decided which one to use just yet though…}
and the inside of the lid will be lined with antique book or ledger paper.
..inside the bottom portion of the box will have a safe place to rest your thimble…
and I will use this most-beautiful pumpkin colored hand dyed velvet {below} inside the bottom.

| ~ gorgeous hand dyed velvet ~ |
The Students who sign up for this class will receive a small kit in the mail ahead of time,
so you can stitch the cross stitched portion…
then you will bring that to the class with you on October 18th ~
...we will put the box together at the class, and also finish a small pumpkin emery as well ~
the CLASS FEE is $45.00 per student ~
that covers the kit + shipping (pattern, linen, threads)
and all of the supplies you need to finish the class project
...once you get here on the 18th of October :)
we will also serve refreshments at the class, drinks and light snacks ~
but if you want to bring a bag lunch or water with you that is fine too :)
If you are interested in taking the class,
please EMAIL ME {not4got@aol.com}
there is limited space available for only 8 students
(Peter seems to think we can squeeze in two more ~ I need a bigger shop!)
first to email, first served will announce here when class is full ~
photos of the class finish will be posted here soon ~ maybe this evening!
Thanks my friends ~
* Blessed be *
Lori
