ByAnnie Stitcher's Suitcase Class
The ByAnnie Stitcher’s Suitcase is ready to help you pack up your sewing supplies in style. In this three-part series you’ll create a beautiful bag especially for your Singer Featherweight.
Join us to create this clever, travel-friendly organizer designed to keep your machine and stitching essentials right where you need them. With pockets, compartments, zippers, and plenty of fun construction details, this project is equal parts practical and satisfying to sew.
Come ready to sew, learn, laugh, and leave with a Stitcher’s Suitcase that’s organized, polished, and ready to tag along on your next sewing adventure!
Class time is 5:00 pm until 9:00 pm.
You’ll need to purchase your pattern, fabrics and notions ahead of time and have everything quilted, cut out and the pieces labeled prior to class to make the most of class time.

| Instructor: | Cassie Blanchard |
| Instructor Bio: | Cassie turned into a full-blown quiltaholic in 2020. In early 2023 she made her first ByAnnie bag and it was love at first zipper. Since then, she’s been hooked and now speaks fluent “ByAnnie” complete with the pattern stash and borderline-out-of-control fabric situation to prove it. She believes that bringing bags to life one stitch at a time is basically a superpower and that every sewist needs a pretty seam ripper, a label that says, “I made this,” and the emotional resilience to wrestle thick seams in their toolbox. In her class, you can expect ByAnnie pattern translation (if you know, you know), helpful tips, a dash of sass, and lots of encouragement. Whether you’re new to bag making or already dangerously close to needing a storage unit for your creations, Cassie is here to make the process fun, fearless, and just the right kind of addicting. |
