  • ------- Crafting in Anaheim, CA ------


    If you're in the Anaheim area, come by the Craft SuperShow, Jan 22-23, 2010, a new consumer show sponsored by the Craft & Hobby Association.

    Lisa will share African style ideas and sign books on the show floor on Saturday afternoon (Jan 23) from 1 to 2pm, and again from 2 to 3pm. Enjoy the free tips, share a few of your own, and make this Bogolan Amulet Pouch Necklace! Free with general show admission. (This is not a regular vendor booth set-up, but Lisa's books and a few other select items will be available for purchase)


    ------- Become a Fasturn Fanatic --------


    If you've looked at the finished results of the Fasturn tool and still can't quite figure out how it works... If you love the dimensional look of fabric tubes (with NO RAW EDGES!!) but have been intimidated... If you're in need of a fun, productive and practical winter fabric project...

    Then register today for this new Cultured Expressions workshop on February 6 at the CE Studio in Rahway, NJ! Become a "Fasturn Fanatic" as Lisa guides you through the use of this wonderful tool. You'll create your own coiled bowl or dimensional wall art project, learning how to measure for and prepare the bias fabric strips, filling and turning them with the Fasturn, and transforming the fabric tubes into a gorgeous, professional looking coiled bowl or dimensional wall art. The workshop fee includes a set of 3 Fasturn tools to take home with you, plus, enjoy an all-day workshop discount of 10% off of all CE merchandise!


    ------- Savings for You - Now thru Jan 22!! -------
