Drawing and hands-on

This is an intermediate level class, but confident beginners should accept this class as a bit of a challenge.  So many feathers..so little time!  Whether yours are long and narrow, short and wide, spiky, curvy, fluffy or flat --- everybody loves feathers and everybody has their own style!  We're going to get started with the most simple feather designs and we'll jazz them up until they sizzle!  I'll show you techniques for swags and wreaths and adding decorative threads.  It's all designed to make those feather designs blaze on your quilts!  Bring your imagination, pencil and paper along with a full dose of energy and attitude!

YES, even micro fillers..We're going to spend some time on stitching in the ditch (I'll demo) and alternatives.  This is a busy class, loaded with lots of great ideas!!

Creating Spaces - 1:30-5:30

Drawing class

This is an intermediate level class.  One of my favorite things to do is to transform a quilt by creating new spaces within it, I'll teach you how. You can add to blocks, borders, sashings, etc.  Learn to use your imagination and allow it to help you create spaces then discover what to do in these spaces to enhance your quilt!   See how easy it is to use tools that you may already own and learn to use whatever you might have on hand!  You have permission to have FUN in this class!!
