March classes nearly sold out
Callie W-L - Thursday, March 04, 2010





March is National Craft Month, so it's fitting that our sewing classes for March are nearly sold out! Luck for you, we added an extra Get Sewing! class to the schedule on Saturday, March 20 from 9:30 until 12:00.

And if you can't make to a class in March, the April schedule is in development.

JUST ARRIVED: Nicey Jane Laminated Cottons
Callie W-L - Wednesday, March 03, 2010






Ooh la la! Heather Bailey's newest line Nicey Jane is one of the most popular at CityCraft, so we were extra, super excited when the Nicey Jane laminated cottons arrived today. (Thanks, Rich from UPS!)

Can you imagine the possibilities? What adorable diaper bags these would make. I can't wait to try to make some bags with this after happily discovering that you can use fusible fleece with laminated cotton (lay laminated cotton right side down on the ironing board, lay fusible fleece on top of laminated cotton with adhesive side down, and iron on the fleece - fleece directions say to use a pressing cloth, but I found that wouldn't let it get hot enough, so I ironed directly on top of the fleece. Worked like magic! Try to avoid ironing directly on the laminated cotton because it can cause the edges to curl.)
