I entered a contest to win a pattern for a tote bag from Urban Arts and Crafts. I won one of the 5 copies of the pattern. However, the store is closing after 12 years. When UAC was in the River Market and I worked downtown I would often walk down there and shop and sign up for classes. I have a lot of good memories from 12 years of classes and shopping. I went today and got some farbric to make one of the bags and I also went shopping in my stash to find some fabric. You will have to wait for progress pictures. Please check out the blog from the store owner as she has a lot of great patterns and you can find her on Craftsy as well.
I wish you tons of luck Karen in your new endeavor. Thanks for the great memories, the fun times, Anni the store cat, and making new friends through the class.
