September 2019
September 13: Ruth Ohol - Beginning Ruler Work (domestic machines) Rulers have long been a staple in the long-arm quilter’s bag-of-tricks. Ruth will concentrate on work that can be done on a domestic machine using a straight ruler, circle rulers and some specialty rulers. Students can bring as many ruler s as they like or make the purchasing decision after seeing how they are u sed. Supply List September 14: Ruth Ohol - Tips, Tricks and Techniques This is a technique class showcasing some of Ruth’s best machine techniques. She has designed the quilt pictured (47” x 57”) to demonstrate the following: • Easy mitered blocks using purchased or pieced stripes • Curved piecing (Drunkard’s path block) • Appliqué stems by machine • Curved edge Dresden plate blocks • Using Omnigrid triangle rulers to improve your patchwork • Quilt edge co rrections Supply ListOctober 2019
October 25: Cindy Grisdela - Improve Puzzle Blocks C reate Improv Log Cabin blocks in a variety of sizes and put them together into a unique composition -- like a jigsaw puzzle. There’s no measuring or precise cutting and each quilt will be unique. We will discuss color choices and using simple design principles to create an original dynamic composition. Supply List October 26: Cindy Grisdela - Modern Retro Circles Wallhanging Combine solids and low volume black and white prints to create a modern improv circle quilt with a mid-century modern feel. The curved piecing in this quilt is easy to stitch, and the technique can be used in many different ways. This wall hanging is 29” w x 39” h. Supply ListNovember 2019

April 3 and 4 (2 day s): Pat Pauly - Printing Fabric Join Pat Pauly in learning the basics of printing on fabric. We’ll be using thickened dye to learn color mixing, application with tools from scrapers to rollers, and various ways to print on cloth. From Monoprints to stenciling, take a plain white fabric and make it sing with color, shape and line. You’ll leave with five yards of unique and colorful fabric that you’ll finish washing at home. This cloth is pe rfect for makin g quilts, clothing or art w orks. Supply ListMay 2020
May 15 and 16 (2-days): Cynthia Neeedham - Linen Ladies Workshop My passion is turning vintage linens into whole cloth quilts. I love being able to create something “new” out of something old. It seems that every one has a few old linens and laces tucked away that they just never know what to do with. I am offering this one-of-a-kind workshop to help you create your own unique heirloom. This is a fun and creative workshop and I guarantee that you will b ecome an addict, as I have, creating these beautiful quilts . Supply List
