#Fairfield, CT– The craft and sewing salons at the Fairfield Woods Branch Library, 1147 Fairfield Woods Road, are gaining in popularity as people realize how much fun and relaxing these programs can be. Join us on Saturday, February 6 at 10:00 am to create Hexies in the Craft Salon and continue the fun at 1:00 pm in the Sewing Salon, as we explore making buttonholes and piping.  Hexagon shapes were popular in the 1930’s quilt world and are making a comeback. We will be creating hexie rosettes which can be used in small or large projects. Sew Crafty Saturday will follow at 1:00 p.m. Colleen Bell will be the instructor for this session. She is an accomplished seamstress and is the former owner of The Embroiderist. This will be an instructional session where you will learn how to sew buttonholes, design and sew your own piping. Both are great skills to have when finishing many projects.

 

These free classes are held in the Sewing Studio at the Fairfield Woods Branch Library and for ages 18 years and older.  Advanced registration for each program is required due to the limited space. All programs at the Fairfield Public Library are free of charge. For more information and to register for this event call 203-256-3160, or visit us on the web www.fairfieldpubliclibrary.org .
