"Little Critter" Purse
Amusing little animals make a small felted wool purse or a wonderful gift pocket in which to tuck a treasured present. Sew a felted wool bumblebee with hand-stitched perle cotton embroidery.


Watercolor Basket Wall Hanging
This basket wall hanging is spilling over with seasonal flowers. Learn the fuse, fold and stitch method using pre-marked, gridded interfacing and make your own watercolor hanging. (No one has to know it was easy!) For beginners, this method forgives wobbly rotary cutting and absorbs fabric gaps and excesses. For watercolor veterans, it's a wonderful way to speedily assemble a colorwash-style quilt.




Snippet Sensations Bouquet
Create a quick, pretty wall hanging using this fun method of snipping pre-fused fabrics. We will snip a floral bouquet in a vase in colors of your choosing.



Hanky Quilt Block
Do you have a collection of antique hankies? Here is a project to use them without cutting them. We will hand stitch those hankies in a butterfly shape, which will use the entire handkerchief and not destroy it or its history. Bring your collection of hankies or use the RJR fabric "Hooked on Hankies."




Silk Ribbon Embroidery Lapel Pin
Create this lovely lapel pin. We will learn silk ribbon embroidery by hand. Simple roses and leaves will be embroidered on a covered button making a lapel brooch. All ages welcome! All supplies provided.




Beginning Quilting: Rail Fence Wall Hanging
The Rail Fence block has enticed quilters for centuries yet is simple enough to be your first quilt! The 41" square project will introduce you to block construction, sashing and borders - all in the fabrics of your choice. The excellent book by Alex Anderson contains inspiration and instructions for five additional projects.


Kwik Krazy Too
Make a traditional scrap quilt (see below) using this efficient quick method. We will cut, shuffle, chain-piece and then trim each block to a perfect 9-1/2" finished square.


Stained Glass Table Runner
Make a beautiful table runner using metallic iron-on bias tape. Choose from several exciting designs. We use grid-printed fusible interfacing to position color wash fabrics and then cover the edges with iron-on bias. A very simple process for a super-glitzy result!


Free Motion Quilting
This class will give you the confidence to quilt your pieced projects with your own sewing machine. We will explore the quilt sandwich, discussing battings and bastings. We will learn our sewing machine's free motion capabilities and test drive them. You will finish a muslin whole-cloth quilt 16" square with free motion stitches. 

 


Magic Stack-n-Whack Quilt
No magic wands, smoke or mirrors. Just let a great fabric print do the work with the help of basic rotary-cutting equipment. This fast technique produces unique and unexpected blocks that will leave you spellbound! Moderate sewing skills required.

 


A World of Color
A look at the science, history and psychology of color will open both sides of your brain to this powerful topic! Discover your true color needs and how to develop a personal color language applicable to quilts, garments and home decor. Bring along a color-stalled project for a jump start of ideas!




Yellow Brick Road
Easy enough for beginners, this quilt frees your color sense and builds your design confidence by using fat quarters, strip piecing and random selection Ð all resulting in a real sweetie of a quilt.
