Drop Zone
Come join us to make Drop Zone, a unique zippered bag that opens flat into a shallow box shape. This unique bag makes a great place to store art supplies, sewing accessories, and other items. We will make the medium size in class. You will sew using foam and insert a zipper.
Class prerequisite: You should know the skills taught in the free “by Annie basics” classes available at byannie.com. These skills include sewing on foam, binding, simple zippers, and more. This prerequisite can be met if you have attended another byAnnie class at Sew What, including Call Me, Clam Up, Flipping Out, Project Bags, or Snapshot. You must know how to thread your machine and wind bobbins.
Before class: Cut your fabrics and quilt as desired. Class does allow time for these.
Supplies:
Drop Zone pattern (available at Sew What)

fusible interfacing – 5”x12”
