Upcoming Events

Join us on this date at the Jeffersonville location for a fun and informative class for those who want to learn how to crochet or simply fine turn their skills!

Joyce Ellis, our amazing teacher, would like for each participant to bring a size H needle and a solid color skein of yarn to the class.  Of course, this applies to those completely new to the craft of crocheting.

Remember, the time spent here @ the library among old and new friends along with a skein of yarn and a crochet hook is a wonderful way to enjoy your weekend!

So you want to learn to sew! A great opportunity awaits at your Library. Whether or not you've operated a sewing machine, or if you've attempted simple sewing projects and weren't satisfied with the results, you're invited to attend our class to learn basic sewing skills. You will learn how to:

• Operate a sewing machine.
• Cut out a pattern and follow instructions for constructing the item.
• Identify appropriate fabrics for selected projects.
• Control stitching of a variety of seams, hems, and finishing raw edges.
• Complete a usable project that will reflect your newly-honed sewing skills.

You may select between 2 projects: creating a simple apron or a reusable tote bag. The Library supplies all materials and the tools for completing the projects. A JTPL library card is required to use the Makerspace; click here to get one if you don't already have one!

Class size is limited. Three sewing machines are available for sharing. If your sewing machine is portable, you're welcome to bring it to the class for your own use.

The Clarksville Branch Library Literary Ladies Book Club is a book club for anyone interested in reading books that focus on family, friendship, and relationships that feature strong female characters.
