1222017: 6 Way Binding Class


This is a Don't Miss Class!

We have all supplies needed at the shop.  Please bring ALL supplies list.  This is so important to make the most of this class.

TAKE NOTE - this is a long class starting at 9am & ending at 6pm, please be on time and set up and ready to go by 9am.  The shop will be open 30 minutes prior to class to get in and set up to be ready to start.  We have a lot to cover and you will not get through the class if late and will keep the class from flowing ahead.  Did not want to make it a 2 day class so this is why it is a long day.  Please understand
If you need extra drinks or snacks for yourself, welcome to bring.
