”The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.” Jalal Ad-Din Rumi
Hopeless romantic? This project is perfect for you! A pocket in a hand made bag holds love letters that are bundled together with ribbon. Open the drawstring bag to reveal a special book made to hold romantic notations and tokens of endearment. As you unfold the layers of stitched love interconnected envelopes and pockets, a love story unfurls. Inside you will create, fluffy lavender filled hearts with terms of endearment sewn onto them, tokens and baubles to attached as a reminder of the beauty, grace and truth in love.
We will provide most of the supplies and a beautiful lunch to spend with Ruth Rae and your new friends.
Bring with you:
Fabric Scissors
Vintage lace, doilies and tattings
