The first 10 people to send the email will be able to order the canvas for the class. Please include the name of the LNS you wish to order from. Those people will receive an email confirming that they may order the canvas. The list of names will be sent to Cooper Oaks and the chosen LNS so they will be sure that the canvas goes to the first 10 people.
The stitch guide for Vertical Picnic may be purchased by all class members for the class. That way, they can work on their canvas and also take notes at the same time.
