Making Zipper Bags

Bring your own special fabrics or use the fabrics you created in the Block Printing or Fabric Collage classes to make a zipper pouch. These pouches are fully lined and padded so you can use them to hold a kindle or iPad, pencils, makeup, or travel items. You’ll learn to sew in a zipper and you’ll walk out of class with a finished pouch ready to use! (4 hours) (sewing machine skills required) Cost: $25 per session

She currently runs her own Etsy shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/LuanneSeymourDesign) where she sells handmade bags made from up-cycled materials. She also writes a blog (http://luanneseymourdesign.wordpress.com) about her experiences as an artist and Etsy shop owner.
