A Piece In LESS Time
Level 2, Sandy
It’s the best class you will ever take and now it’s better than ever. Over the years, Sandy has developed or taught many techniques to simplify the quiltmaking process, to make the most of your limited sewing time and to become more productive in the process. She will cover techniques by Mary Ellen Hopkins, Jackie Robinson, Kaye England and her other talented friends. You will get to see many dozens of quilts without leaving your classroom seat. It’s easier than going to a quilt show! Each class will cover a different category of patchwork design. We’ll do rail sets; 4-patches and 9-patches; half-square triangles; quarter-square triangles; log cabins; design manipulation and lots, lots more. When we work from the MEH books, you will be able to bring your copies to class to put all the great notes into your books. We know you will enjoy it because the rave reviews from former students attest to it. Bring your machine to the first class only. The rest is lecture/demo. $65
  •  Tuesdays, 6-9 PM: Feb 9, 16, 23, Mar 2 and 9
  •   Thursdays, 10 AM-1 PM: Feb 11, 18, 25, Mar 4 and 11
