More Casserole Carrier stuff

John Stam at Brampton Sew N Serge sent along a couple of pictures of the casserole carrier that he did for his class.



Very nicely done John! He says in his email:

“Hi Snez, had great fun making the carrier, was easy to plan and assemble thank you for all your work.

… I made one using the serger for serger bias. I used 30wt Sulky blendables didn't have the 12wt, would have been better result I think. Thanks again John”



I think it turned out pretty darn good.

It's a new year!

Welcome back everyone. I am pleased to say that almost every one renewed. Plus we have a couple of new retailers.



I have spent the last few months planning, digitizing designs and sewing projects for this year’s embroidery club. I am hopeful that you will find the projects and designs both fun and interesting. And, that you will have a good embroidery club year. Our first project is this pretty and practical Quilted Casserole Carrier. Click here to download the instructions and designs. Also, don’t forget to download the Teaching Tips, Supplies List and the CD label.



The Quilted Casserole Carrier includes fun sewing techniques and embroidery in a circle. The sewing is fairly simple, but the embroidery can be challenging, especially for those members using smaller hoop sizes. The designs stitch out quickly, but there are quite a few repeats.

We used a purchased bias binding for our Casserole Carrier. However, you can make your own binding, if desired, showing the Clover bias tape makers. Click here to download a tutorial on how to "Make Your Own Bias Binding".

Have fun with this project. And, don't forget to email me with stories of your embroidery club. I am certain that others will love to hear what’s happening in your store.
