New Classes

I'm involved with a group of friends and we call ourselves Keep it Crafty.  We offer various classes and I have just put together the new timetable for April 2012.

On Tuesday nights I am offering a class with a choice of two quilts. 

'Reach for the Stars'

 This is Reach for the Stars and it measures 41" x 41".  It's a good lesson in colour value.

'Hidden Stars'

The second one is call Hidden Stars and it measures 59" x 72". This quilt is from the book 'Layer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quilts' and everyone needs their own copy.  The price of the class includes the book.

Hidden Stars is also offered in my Wednesday morning class and my current ladies are already thinking about colour and fabric choices.

The details for Louise's classes will be confirmed later and Mary won't be offering classes until September as she has quite a busy schedule at the moment.

Jelly Roll Quilt

I decided for my class in January to make a jelly roll quilt as lots of the girls were asking what to do with the rolls of fabric.  I already had the book 'Layer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quilts' by Pam & Nicky Lintott, so I decided to make the one called Stepping Stones from lots of different French General fabrics that I had collected.

Everyone who enrols for my class will get their own copy of the book.  The pattern was very easy to follow and in fact this quilt came in two sizes.  The larger size comes with a pieced border but I chose this one as it was a handier size for class.

In the garden

It just amazes me how the colour of something can look so different indoors and outdoors because of the light conditions. 

I'm looking forward to this class in January.

 By the way, apologies for the fonts in my last post.  They appeared to have a life of their own and apparently this is not a new problem but I could not find any immediate solution.

Talk later.
