Flipping Out



Sturdy cases in two sizes store and carry pens and pencils, sewing tools, knitting needles, and more.  Soft and Stable® provides great body and stability and ensures that the cases stand up and hold their shape.  When open, the cases convert into desktop stands by folding down their tops, allowing easier access and visibility of contents without sacrificing stability.  Mesh pockets on the inside help organize supplies.  Each case zips shut for safe and secure storage.  You will learn how to use just one side of the zipper tape to make a continuous zipper closure.

The outside of either case may be embellished with an optional ribbon border.

The pattern includes complete step-by-step instructions for cases in two sizes.

To adequately prepare for classes and events, we ask that you please register at least 2 weeks prior to the start date.  Your space in class will not be held withhout payment.  Each class has a minimum, and maximum, number of students and may fill, or be cancelled, prior to your payment.

If a

We are diligent about enforcing copyright laws; if a book, pattern or embroidery design is required for a class, each student must purchase their own copy. There are no exceptions.

Students should bring their sewing machine with all of the appropriate parts (including the instruction manual, foot control and power cord). Students must be familiar with the basic operation (i.e. winding a bobbin and threading the machine) of their machine for creative classes, and the machine must be in good working condition. Alternatively, a student may pre-register to rent a sewing machine (when avail;able) for creative classes at a rental rate of $15 per class session.  Students who experiences great difficulty with their sewing machine during class may need to rent a machine.
