2012 Workshops |
Planning is well
underway for the workshops for 2012.
Here is a line up of what you can
expect!
Further information will be posted
on the web site shortly (including photos of the projects and supply
lists).
So start your planning early.
Registration for
Workshop #1 will open at the September and October meeting.
Registration is opening early as we
would prefer not to be handling registrations at the November
holiday party and there is no guild meeting in December.
Please see Lyn McCreary who will be
taking registrations and collecting the class fee of $50.00.
Please remember that you are not
registered until you have paid your fee so bring along your
checkbooks or cash to secure a spot in the class.
E-mails to Lyn do not secure your
spot.
Payment must be made in full.
Registrations for the remaining workshops
will open in January 2012 once the budgets have been finalized and
approved in November.
E-mail
Lyn McCreary for more information.

Wearable art is definitely in the forefront of a quilter’s
wardrobe. The base for this jacket is a women’s T-shirt, not a
sweatshirt. Your jacket will be completed, or nearly, in the
class. You will learn how to custom fit your jacket to your
body shape. The pattern used will be Sherbet and Cream, which
will be available in class for $10.00.

LESLIE MUIR-VOLPE
Basics in Miniature Quilt Making
Here's your
chance to try making one of those miniature quilts you've seen
and admired, but thought you couldn't do. We'll cover all the
techniques of traditional quilt making, but adapt them to
working small using "Twenty Tips for Tiny Quilts." Emphasis is
placed on cutting, sewing, and pressing carefully for precision
piecing. Participants will make one or two tiny quilts
utilizing the skills learned.

Workshop #5
PAT FERGUSON
"Zen Quilting"
“Zentangle® is an
easy to learn method of creating beautiful images from
repetitive patterns” (quote from
www.zentangle.com website). Isn’t that what we do when
we are machine quilting too?
Zentangle® opened up a whole new
outlook on machine quilting for Pat, who then developed this
class to make machine quilting much easier and help free up
those with “quilters block”.
Class is open to anyone with basic machine
quilting skills, a craze for Zentangle® and the
desire to add more patterns to your machine quilting repertoire.
The focus and relaxation created by
Zentangle® really does cross
over into machine quilting when using the same basic techniques
to create these quilting designs.
