Hand piecing in the New Millennium A very special guest will be stopping by to visit us during this class! She’s the Queen of hand piecing so put this class as a definite “must take”! Come take a trip down memory lane and piece the way our Mothers and Grandmothers did; but we’ll use some new tricks. Do you long to get more piecing done but just can’t find the time? Hand-piecing might just be your answer. When you hand-piece you can pick up a block you have cut out and marked and take it with you wherever you go. You’ll understand block construction from the inside out and learn the techniques to get perfect points and set-in seams that will make you a better piecer whether by hand or machine! We’ll go through the marking and cutting of block pieces and start a 4-block sampler ranging from simple to more complicated blocks that will give you all the tools you need to start hand-piecing right away. Can you guess who’s coming to see us? |

Karla Menaugh of Sunflower Pattern Co-Operative $40.00 class fee plus class kit fee |
Machine Appliqué That Will Fool The Eye Have you always loved the look of hand- appliquéd quilts, but thought you didn't have the time or skill to make them? Karla Menaugh, co-author of the Quiltmaker's Guide to Fine Machine Appliqué, will show you her special tips and techniques to create machine appliqué that could pass as hand appliqué. You will create an appliqué project with turned-under fabric edges, all-cotton thread, and a stitch that is nearly invisible -- all the wonderful qualities of hand appliqué, but accomplished by machine. Designed especially for this cruise, your class project will have the special antique-quilt flavor that Karla and Barbara Brackman give to all their Sunflower Pattern Co-operative designs. |

Carol Porter of Heatherworks $40.00 class fee plus class kit fee |
Yoyos For All Seasons Spring Buds, Summer Blooms, Autumn Grapes, and Winter Holly are the themes for four blocks that can stand alone or be set in a year round wall hanging.

A newer method of appliqué (Appliqué from the Back) will be taught in class; this is a fabulous method for appliquéing when the background is a dark color. You will also learn to make your own fusible bias tape for the stems! Once you learn the lessons in this class…there will be no limit to your own creative designs! |

You don’t want to be left out on the cold - Burrrrrr…. |
