Zigzag Rope Projects

Unlock your creativity and expand your knowledge beyond traditional zigzag rope bowls! Join us for a fun and creative rope sewing class where you'll learn how to make an adorable Market Tote and other projects featured in Katherine Lile’s book, Zigzag Rope Sewing Projects. Bonnie will guide you through various creative techniques as you customize your tote through the addition of colorful rope and cotton fabric, experiment with different weaving and finishing styles, and gather inspiration for creating your own custom rope sewing projects.

Leave this workshop with a beautiful handmade bag - durable enough for everyday use and vibrant enough to turn heads at the market! Use your newly found skills and confidence to tackle any rope sewing project, perfect for gifts or personal use.

This workshop is great for sewing enthusiasts looking to expand their skills! Some rope sewing experience or previous Rope Bowls class required.

Meet the instructor!

Bonnie has been a part of the Sue Spargo community since 2017. She has been sewing and knitting her entire life, and became an avid quilter when her children were in middle school. Bonnie loves experimenting with new projects, learning new craft skills, and teaching others. She maintains that there isn't any scenario that can't be fixed with a cup of coffee and a hot glue gun. When she isn't in her sewing room, Bonnie enjoys spending time with her grandchildren, volunteering in her community, and being active in her church.

"I took Bonnie's rope bowl class and she is an excellent teacher. She was well prepared with lots of demonstrations and she had previous bowls she made for us to view. We were not rushed and Bonnie walked around observing us as we created and offered tips to make it easier and answered any questions we had. I definitely recommend this class." - Darlene W.

"I had a blast creating these rope bowls! Following the class, I was inspired to make many more to give as gifts to my family and friends." - Elaine R.
