This is the sample quilt the Lady's will be making.
The first lesson was learning to use a rotary cutter & sew a 1/4"seam. The Lady's were a bit scared to start but in no time they were having lots of fun.
The Lady's in the class have also learnt to speak a hole new language ( patchwork terminology).Its exciting & a great pleasures to welcome new people in to the world of Patchwork & Quilting.
Our second lesson was sewing bias seams or triangles. With a little care and concentrating this block went together well.
Next was the Chun Dash block. The Lady's are becoming a lot more confident now.
The next lesson will be an introduction to drawing up there own block on 1/4"graph paper & how to make templates from there drawing.
If any one would like to join the class now is a good time. The class is on every Thursday,
Starts at 9.30 & goes until 3.oo
I also have two lady's that are working on there own projects. Its always lovely to sew with a group. You seem to get lots of impressions and ideas from one another.
