Sashing Stars

Monday November 1

9:00 – 4:00

$40.00

A set of nice quilt blocks can become a terrific quilt with a dazzling setting and sashing that incorporates stars is a good way to achieve this.  Marti Michell has designed another terrific tool set that enables you to create three different star styles accurately using 2", 3", or 4" sashing cut to the exact length you need. And the block style is flexible -- pieced, appliquéd, machine embroidered, or simply preprinted fabric panels.  Bring a set of 6 to 18 blocks in any size, an assortment of coordinating fabrics, and I'll help you design and start sewing a layout perfect for your project!  (Template set is $18.)

Border Quilts

Thursday November 4

9:30 – 3:30

$35.00

Many of us often buy beautiful border fabric thinking we will use it as a border on one of our quilts - then it sits in our stash for awhile!  This quilt is similar to stack-n-whack using border fabrics but is very easy to make and requires no special tools or rulers.  I normally use a border fabric with five or six repeats for width of fabric.  This quilt goes together in an afternoon and is not only different but beautiful!  Highly recommended for a quilter who wants to make a quilt that is easy and fast!! You will only be limited by your imagination.
