Please have all your fabric ready before the first class. If you need help selecting fabrics, Jennifer and Vicki can help you. There is no class time reserved for selecting fabrics. Before the first class, please wash, starch, and press your fabrics. You will find the bias edges much easier to work with if the fabric has been starched pretty heavily.

Wonderful Christmas Lone Star sample!  Sewing supplies: Sewing machine Basic sewing kit Rotary cutter Small iron with steam, optional Water-soluable glue stick Open-toed presser foot – optional Teflon press cloth – very important Fabric requirements: Follow yardage on pattern for the size you’re making. You may want to choose a “busy” fabric for the center of the star to camouflage the eight-fabric juncture. The technique is extremely accurate and this will probably not be a problem. You should have good contrast in value and scale for interest. Be sure that all of the star fabrics show up well on the background. Pre-cutting: Follow the pattern and come to class with the rectangles cut from the star fabrics. You do not need to cut the background squares. I will demo this in class. Do not cut borders.

Learn a fun way to set your blocks so they tilt for a lively new look. This simple quilting project begins with a pre-printed panel that you then "twist" for a whimsical look. Great for a child, or for a theme quilt. It is very easy for a beginner, but a valuable technique for the advanced quilter. You can increase the size of your block; a triple twist will double the size of the block and thereby decrease the number of blocks needed.  Sewing machine, basic sewing kit, rotary cutter, mat, ruler (6" x 24", 12" or 15" square) Fabric--bring (6) pre-printed panels, OR (6) completed quilt blocks, OR (6) squares of fabric. They can range from 6" to 10". Nothing larger than 10" for this class. The easiest size to learn on is 8". Your blocks should be squares, not rectangles. We will do triple twists and this will approximately double the size of your block. You'll need 1 yard each of three fabrics (total 3 yards) to frame your blocks. The middle twist should be a light or bright color. Pull colors from your blocks or panels for the other "twists".
