Pembina Backpack

Come sew an extra-fun back-to-school bag. Julie will walk you through sewing the Pembina Backpack (by The Blanket Statement Quilt Co.) this summer. It's always more fun to sew in a group working on the same project together!
IMPORTANT - Download the Pembina Backpack Class Handout here. This is very important because it outlines all of your "PRE-WORK" to have done before you come to the first class. You will also need to purchase the pattern (we have it here at the shop), along with all supplies outlined in the pattern. You will also need to bring your sewing machine, already loaded with a coordinating thread.
*** Cancellation Policy: We know you are excited to take a class. It's going to be awesome! A lot of effort goes into our classes -- scheduling, promoting, and preparation by our incredible instructors. For this reason, we cannot guarantee refunds for classes cancelled within 72 hours of the start of the class. Yes, we know sometimes things come up; we get it. If you must cancel, we will attempt to fill your spot in the class. Out of respect for our instructors' preparation efforts, if we can't fill the seat we will not make a refund. Thank you for your understanding. ***
