Bag Club x 3

This past Wednesday we held our Class Reveal at our shop, thank you to everyone that came out. As promised I will now share them here. I will begin with the Bag Clubs that we are offering, and when we are back from our camping trip, I will share the other clubs we are offering followed by some of the individual classes.
At the Open House we had two Bag Clubs, a beginner friendly club (Bag Club 1.0) and one that is more advanced (Bag Club 2.0), however after some feedback we will be throwing in a third club.

First up Bag Club 1.0. This club as mentioned is beginner friendly, the patterns are a variety of sizes and styles and come from several different pattern designers. There is wallets, handbags, duffel bags, and more. You will learn new techniques and how to work with different materials like mesh clear vinyl, cork, leather and more. How its going to work is as follows. There are a total of 9 bag patterns to choose from. Each bag pattern has a date scheduled for it (1 a month), on this date we will get together in our classroom and make this bag. In some cases there may be a little prep work, in others it might end up being a finish at home kind of bag, some of them you may finish completely in the allotted time. Supply lists and any prep work will be sent out via email about a week prior to the class date.
There is a $120 commitment fee for the club. You can come to all of them or just pick and choose, for the first 6 that you attend you will receive a $20 Chicken Feed Quilts Cash Coupon, this coupon is yours to spend. If you attend 6 or more, your club fee will be completely reimbursed to you, if you attend fewer than 6, you will forfeit those coupons.
Bag Club 2.0, this club will work the same way as the Bag 1.0 Club.  Bag Club 2 includes all the Bag Club 1 patterns as well as an additional bunch that are a little more advanced, for the majority of these additional patterns we have made them 2 day classes, and have provided an optional cutting day as well. All the patterns are on different days, none of them overlap with each other, (for the most part there is 2 different patterns each month) For the classes that include the Bag 1 patterns, we will all get together as a larger group.
The fee for Bag 2.0 is $160 and for the first 8 classes you will receive a $20 CFQ Cash Coupon, again you may attend as many as you like.
Bag Club 1 and 2 will both be held during the day and we will start at 10am and the classroom will be open for sewing until 4pm.

The third Bag Club is being taught by Carrie and is geared towards young adults between the ages of 16 and 24. Little to no bag making experience is required to attend. In this club you will make bags that are very useful, and simple, but also teach you new bag making techniques. You will put zippers in, use hardware and explore the use of different interfacings, stabilizers, and different types of materials including some opportunities to use cork, leather or vinyl.
The fee for the club will work the same way as the other two, with this one being set at $80.
The Young Adults Bag Club will be an evening club, running from 7pm-9pm, most of the bags will be taught over the course of two evenings to ensure you get as much done as possible, and are not left with unfinished bags.

To sign up for any of these clubs click here. (The dates for each are listed in the Class Description when you open the class link)
If you wish to sign up for any of the classes individually there will also be an option for that, I just have not uploaded them to the website yet. The fee for the single day classes will be $25 and for the two classes it will be $45, you will not receive CFQ cash coupons back for this fee though, that is only for those that commit to the whole club.
There will be no blog posts next week, the next one will be on Tuesday, August 27.
Have a great weekend!
