Classes & Events
Thank You for being a part of the Lakeshore Sewing family. Our passion and our hobby is especially dependent on personal relationships; and as most everyone knows, significant measures are being taken in every aspect of our lives right now.
Due to the continuing Covid-19 surge, all in-person classes have been postponed. Online, Zoom, and video classes will continue as planned. How Zoom classes work:
- You do not need to have a Zoom account to participate in a Zoom class.
- You can register and pay for Zoom classes through the stores (by phone or in person), just like an in-person class.
- Supply lists will be available in-store and online.
- You must supply a current email address when you sign up so that instructors will be able to send out invitations to join the class.
- Teachers will email the invitation links to join the class at least 24 hours in advance. There will be no class refunds with less than 48 hours notice.
- If you are new to Zoom, please check into the class ahead of time and follow the prompts to set up audio and video. PLEASE NOTE: Zoom seems to work best in conjunction with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Chromium Edge.

Anyone interested in creative and fun fiber art is welcome to come join us! No experience necessary; come learn and have fun! January thru March will be using the fabrics we have dyed, gel plate printed and painted. January we will make a fabric journal cover. February will be adding the pages to our journal.

Please call the Wyoming, MI Lakeshore Sewing store at 616-531-5561 to register.
January – Journal cover. Let’s use some of the fabric and papers we have made to make a journal. January will be the cover. Use the fabric you have dyed, gel plate printed, or hand painted to collage a journal cover. It could be hand stitched or just designed and pinned to be sewn at home. The fabric could be made a fusible and fused down or leave the edges raw to fray and ravel. Check out Willawanders.carrd.co to see her journals. We will use this as our muse.
February – Make a journal. We will learn how to put a journal together. Use the cover from January or any cover you wish. This will be basic book making 101. Several sewing/binding techniques will be shown. The pages can be paper, fabric or a combination. Another chance to use up the dyed and painted fabric we have made.

Event Details
This is a great heavy duty little tote bag – also Featherweight friendly! It is from Penny Sturges / Quilts Illustrated and includes the hardware required. Because it is a slightly complicated pattern, the first class will be an hour-long orientation; the second class we can do the cutting and begin quilting if you are not comfortable doing that at home and the third and fourth classes will be assembly. The intention is that once your bag is cut out, the quilting can be completed at home. Intermediate, $45. Wed., 1/20, 1/27, 2/3, 2/10; Please call the Wyoming, MI Lakeshore Sewing store at 616-531-5561 to register.
