It’s time to sign up for Quilt College!
This is the annual (and only) fundraiser to support the Pine Tree Quilters Guild, and enable us to do all the fun things!
This year we have 4 great local instructors, with a variety of classes to choose from.
Kari Bender (The Needle Workshop/The Quilting Workshop)
• The Magic of Blackwork: Learn about counted thread embroidery worked on even-weave fabric, traditionally with 1 or multiple strands of black floss.
• Visible Mending (Boro): Boro is currently part of the slow stitching movement that allows for meditative stitching time, either for creation of art or for function of a garment. Patching your clothes is back in fashion!
Mary Wilke (Sew Smart)
• Crazy Patchwork: You will learn step by step how to use those scraps that are just too beautiful to toss. After construction, you will have the opportunity to enhance your block with decorative stitches and threads.
• Dresden Plate: This class will teach an easy way to make this traditional quilt block. You will learn step by step how to make the plates and assemble them into an 18” quilt block.
Heidi Miller (Created Anew)
• Wonky Neighbor: Learn how to paper piece using the tear free method.
Teresa Locknane (Red Spool Designs)
• Seasonal Collaged Mini Art Quilt: In this class students will learn the underlay method of collage using Laura Heine’s ‘Whatevers! Flower Truck’ pattern and their own fabrics.
