Quilt Camp Class ScheduleClasses described below
CLASS DESCRIPTIONTHURSDAY CLASSES
The possibilities are endless! You can make the stars shown in the sample or choose from other variations that will be available in class. Once you've made your blocks there are numerous settings to choose from. You can also make this very scrappy or in a planned color combination as shown in the picture.
This is a great pattern from Miss Rosie. It will also be in her new book from Leisure Arts entitled “Miss Rosie's Spice of Life Quilts”. Log Cabin blocks and Star blocks are set in a Barn Raising design to create a great looking quilt.
This book offers many different quilts using the same basic technique. Pick your favorite design and we will spend the day creating strata and exploring opportunities for embellishment. I have personally completed the NeoStella and Gum Blossom projects and found them to be very satisfying. They each use strata but in different ways. You'll be amazed how easy and fast it is to create the strata and the many different ways to use it in your project. It will be fun to see how different each student's project looks while they are all using the same technique.
A two color quilt, this one looks more difficult than it actually is. Many secrets to the construction, all of which is template free. Options are given for the final setting. A stunning quilt that will give you great pleasure to piece. Intermediate to Advanced skill level.
For those of you who have a cat with personality or know someone
who has , this is the “cat” quilt. In this two day workshop you will not only
piece cat related blocks from the past, but will get to appliqué, using fusible,
the personality cats. From June's cat experience she has created “cat moment”
with which we all can identify. This will be a fun workshop in which you will
learn perfect piecing, fusible appliqué and more. June always discusses balance
and color to move the eye throughout the quilt. You will be able to have a
relaxed “kitty” experience in this two day workshop!
This is a design from Marsha McCloskey's “Feathered Star Quilt Blocks I”. Marsha was inspired by an old red, white and blue quilt. The feathers go all the way around the corner square to make a Lady of the Lake design. The center is a LeMoyne Star. Advanced Skill only. Size: 40” x 40”.
This is a one day confident beginner class. Alternating two blocks and fun techniques in construction. Four fabrics work but I think it would be a great scrap quilt.
FRIDAY CLASSES
This quilt is from a pattern (Point of Plaids) by Country Threads. Using freezer paper templates makes it fun and easy to piece.
This is a design from Gingham Girls. Ohio Star blocks tossed in the air and set in a topsy turvy setting makes this quilt a modern twist to an old favorite. Make yours using 30's prints, CivilWar, Brights or whater makes your stars shine.
A wonderful paper pieced project that can be made with up to 36 blocks for a 72”x 72” (without additional borders) quilt. This project is a wildly fun project that can be made by someone new to paper-piecing or can also challenge someone who has done lots of paper piecing. There is a unique technique that can be used on some of the arcs. A project that will use lots of color and print fabrics come explore your wild side.
Shown in all plaids, this quilt is also wonderful in scraps of all kinds……..i.e., prints, solids, textures, plaids, stripes, nondescripts, etc. Also bring in an assortment of colors to add a little 'zip' to your quilt. Many ideas for final layout will be shared during the class. A fun one to do and great to use up all your stash! Beginner plus to Advanced.
The Storm at Sea pattern gives the illusion of the rolling ocean. There is much movement without any curved pieces. This pattern dates back to the 1930's and is easily made today with a new technique trimming the units to perfect size creating a perfect fit. It's a great two color quilt or make yours scrappy with a variety of values.
