FABRIC AND SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
As per the back of the pattern
Creative Grids 60 degree ruler - large/16.5in version

Basic Sewing Kit (see below what we mean by this :)

SUGGESTED/HANDY TOOLS
Clapper gets those seams super flat
Best Press is perfect to prep your fabric prior to cutting - helps keep fabric from fraying and stiffens fabric just a bit to help with fabric cut on the bias.

PREP WORK BEFORE CLASS
No prep work required. Tips on prepping and cutting fabric will be reviewed in class.

*WHAT IS IN A BASIC SEWING KIT:
For most of our classes we ask you to bring (along with your sewing machine) a 'basic sewing kit' which usually contains: rotary cutter and/or scissors, cutting mat, small snipping scissors, straight pins & a pin cushion or collector, seam ripper, a spool of neutral 50 wt cotton thread, extra bobbins, notebook & pen/pencil, tape measure/ruler(s), etc.

CLASS CANCELLATION POLICY:
Classes are non-refundable, however they are transferable. No credit or refund will be given for a "no show" in class, regardless of reason. 
Around The Block reserves the right to cancel classes for any reason. If this happens, you will be refunded your full class fee.


Materials Included: Irons & ironing stations. Large dedicated sewing table.
Requirements: *Basic Sewing Kit. Fabric requirements are listed on the back page of the pattern. If the pattern or supplies are out of stock when you register online - don't worry, more are on their way! Give us a call 780-354-3423 to make sure one is set aside for you.

Newsletter Signup

We love Thursdays! Why? That is when our emails are automatically sent out!

These emails are independent of each other, so if you only want to know about classes, then only check that box.
Except for my blog, the other three are automated and routinely go out on time!

If you have "unsubscribed" from any of these automated emails in the past, this is where you can sign back up for them. Unfortunately, we are not able to bypass and do the "re" subscribing for you. (Absolutely no judgment here! I know what it is like to have a really full inbox and ya just wanna trim it down! But we would be super happy if you resubscribe once your inbox is manageable again.) Keep reading to find out how to re-subsrcibe to our Constant Contact managed blog/email newsletters.

1st Thursday: New Products - what came in last month that is new (or at least new to our store)

3rd Thursday: Upcoming Classes
4th Thursday: What is on Sale

You will also notice a special interest email sign up for Longarming - we have a few things up our sleeve on this one. 
If you are a longarmer (or considering a purchase) make sure to click this one off  - that way you will be included in on those emails. It could be anything from great resources, upcoming specials on supplies or machines, etc.

We anticipate that the Longarm specific email will come out a few times a year.

Our blog/email newsletters use a different marketing system that doesn't communicate well with our system at the till. SO, if you feel like you had signed up for our blog/email newsletters but aren't receiving them - click here to re-register with our Constant Contact newsletter system to make sure these land in your mailbox!


Don't forget you can also find us on Facebook and Instagram! Please join us there for fun videos, promotions and behind the scene type of fun-ness!
