Beginner Sewing Class offered by OSU Extension

The 10-Minute Spring Table Runner Class will be held 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Feb. 24 at the Stephens County Fairgrounds Conference Center. There is a registration fee (please call the number below for the cost). It includes your pattern expert instruction, tips and tricks. Participants will need to bring two coordinating fabrics and thread to match. You will need your sewing machine, or you can use one supplied by OSU Extension. You also will need good fabric scissors and basic sewing supplies.

The Extension Master Sewing volunteers want you to get creative and brighten up the table with a colorful, extraordinary runner. This is a beginning level sewing project that anyone can enjoy, said Brenda Gandy-Jones, OSU Extension Educator FCS/4-H CED.

"Kaye, Gina, myself and Linda are eager to provide leadership and instruction to complete this quick project. These table runners are ideal for those times when you need a quick gift, or you just need a simple splash of color on your dining table. The table runner is the project that you will enjoy making again and again throughout the year."
