“Girls Just Want To Have Fun” !
Teresa Fields | November 29, 2009
Just like all of you I am very busy trying to get ready for the upcoming holidays. Can we talk just a minute? Doesn’t it seem like it is coming quicker this year or what? Maybe it is just my age creeping up on me. Things seem to be going by quicker. Anyway I have a couple things to share with you.
November 14th I had the pleasure of teaching a class on my new tote from the “Snap, Grab and Go” pattern. Now check this out.
Two gals named Kathy and Sally Wilcox are sisters but they also married brothers. How cool is that! They own a soon to be quilt shop called “Little Scrap Quilt Shop”. I say soon to be because they have been vending for the last year and 2010 they will be opening a quilt shop in Kokomo, IN. Maris, Judy and Ruth that are in the photos had a great time making the bag. When I teach this I like for you to leave with a finished bag. We don’t need anymore UFOs. The fabrics were all different. Maris picked a fabric for a diaper bag, Judy a cute fabric with flamingos, and Ruth a everyday bag. The bag is so versatile! Kathy and Sally had all their products set up for sale and their guild could stop by and shop during the class. They also had a “snack table” set up for us with lots of goodies. They know how to do it! We sewed, shopped, ate, talked, laughed and walked out with a finished bag. What more could you ask for?
I just received two cans of Marking Magic spray. I will be testing these in the next few days and will give you my results. Until then keep quilting!
Kathy and I have been having a lot of fun and learning so much this year as we vended. We have
received so much support and good wishes from everyone we’ve met. We are very happy we were
able to host Teresa’s class for the Snap, Grab & Go bag. We did have fun! It’s a treat to learn
from Teresa herself! Her new bag is fabulous!

This was my first class ,it was so much fun. Teresa is a great teacher. I had a fantastic time and can hardly wait for the next on. The bag was easy to make and the directions were clear. Loved it.
I’m so happy the shop opened! I live in Kokomo, but will be moving to Fisher’s next month. I am also dying to learn to quilt and am hoping to do so soon.
