    It's National Jelly Roll Day!  Who knew that?!

    Save the Date for a fun class with Kim Pebley.  You can learn all things Jelly Roll.  You can make this free Moda Star Flower pattern or bring another Jelly Roll friendly pattern to work on.  Kim also has a Jelly Roll Race Challenge for you.

    If the above pattern is not your Jelly Style, you are welcome to find something else, and Kim will also have free and purchase patterns and lots of samples.

    National Sew a Jelly Roll Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of September each year. The day encourages quilters to use pre-cut fabrics that they don't plan to use for a project, and to store and roll them together with other pieces, called "jelly rolls", for later use. The quilter can use a variety of effects to contribute to the final quality of the quilted material, including the type and thickness of the material, the stitch length and style, pattern design, and piecing and cutting.

    Setup for classes begins at 8:30.

    ** Registrations must be paid immediately.  Your seat is not guaranteed until payments have been finalized.

  • "Starlight" Scrap Quilt Hybrid Workshop with Lori Dickman

    Introducing the Starlight Quilt by Lori Dickman, a hybrid workshop available in person and by Zoom.

    To create this striking quilt, students will either pull squares from their stash (or cut from fat quarters or yardage) in various sizes and values of Lights, Mediums and Darks to create nine beautiful Starlight blocks for this wall quilt, measuring 42” x 42” with borders. During the workshop, Lori Dickman teaches her Speedy Solutions techniques as she shows how to pull scraps from her stash to use with many different quilt patterns. Her techniques are amazingly simple to incorporate for hundreds of patterns… what a wonderful way to use up Scrap Stash to create beautiful quilts!

    By implementing the techniques in Lori’s book, "Speedy Solutions to Cut & Organize Your Scrap Stash," the student will have a scrap stash that has already been cut in various sizes and values to use for this pattern. However, the student can also simply use fat quarters or yardage to create a beautiful “Starlight” quilt!  Kit required: Either the Starlight Pattern $10.00 each; OR the "Speedy Solutions Pattern book: $30 (includes Starlight & 11 additional scrappy patterns).

    Read Lori's biography here.

    Supply list and pattern info to be posted later.  Please purchase your own pattern and do not share.

    Setup for classes begins at 8:30 a.m.  Registrations will automatically open up about 3 months in advance.  Notification emails will also automatically be sent.

    ** Registrations must be paid immediately.  Your seat is not guaranteed until payments have been finalized.  Cancellations must be processed 5 days in advance of the event to receive a refund.

  • Easy Does It, a ByAnnie bag with Barbara Withers

    • 4 Nov 2024

    Register


    This is a great way to learn the basics of bag making that will directly transfer into other more advanced Byannie patterns. You will learn:

    • The benefits of using a foam stabilizer to give bags their great body and stability.
    • How to prepare a zipper strip
    • How to use the time-saving Binding Hack
    • How to easily enclose raw edges with binding
    • How to make easy modifications to turn this pattern into a purse

    Patterns are FREE.  Click here to download the pattern.

    See pattern for fabric requirements. You can use ByAnnie's Soft and Stable foam or Pellon Flex Foam which comes in non fusible, 1-sided fusible and 2-sided fusible. Barbara prefers the 2-sided fusible (FF79F2) as it makes it easier to quilt especially if you are wanting to fussy cut the sides of your bag.

    Special Instructions: The Cut and Quilt 1.A and 1.B portions of the pattern instructions should be done before class. This will allow you to bring your 18” x 21” sandwiched and quilted piece to class to be cut into the final pattern pieces. Contact Barb Withers with any questions.

    Setup for classes begins at 8:30.

    ** Registrations must be paid immediately.  Your seat is not guaranteed until payments have been finalized.
