Splatters, Splashes, and Splotches by Sue Beevers (September 13th) - This is a class for students who are interested in exploring the myriad of painted fabrics that are possible to make using splattering, splashing, and splotching techniques. More information... Sign up Now!

Button, Button, YOU'VE Got the Button! by Eleanor Levie (September 27th) -- We all know you've got a big old jar or box--or maybe a treasure chest chock-full of buttons. This class is sure to unbutton and unleash your imagination to think about buttons outside the box—and onto quilts, and quilted accessories, and wearables. After all, whether buttons are functional or purely decorative, they're the perfect accents for everything you make. More information... Sign up Now!


Intermediate Celtic Design by Scarlett Rose (October 4th) - Take the next steps in learning how to draw Celtic designs with Scarlett's technique for creating knots, with Magic Key #2. If you've done some Celtic applique or taken other Celtic classes, this class is for you! Learn how to make corners with bias tape, create intersections in Celtic designs and find out all about inset patches. Learn a precise method for making your own fusible bias tape with your choice of fabric, a craft or mini iron, fusible web and a fusible bias tape maker. This class also shows how to do invisible machine appliqué, which will give your project a hand appliqued look done in less time than real hand applique. For the intermediate quilter with optional suggestions for the advanced. More information... Sign up Now!


Your First Quilt by Maria Hrabovsky (October 18th) - If you have never made a quilt, this class is for you. It will take you step by step from the tools and fabrics you will need right through to a finished, labelled, machine-quilted, small quilt. Students will choose the size of quilt they wish to make: doll quilt, wall hanging, crib quilt, baby quilt, or child size. Each student’s quilt will be different from the others. The only prerequisite for this class is knowing how to use your sewing machine. More information... Sign up Now!


New Picture Page!
I am very excited about the addition of a picture page at our web site. As an operator in #quiltcampus chat channel, a room designed for quilters to share their thoughts and ideas on quilting, I volunteer my time to moderator the channel so we have a safe fun place to chat with other quilters. I have chatted with 100s of folks from all over the world. The only thing is I have no idea what they look like. Visit our new chatter picture page and see who I have pictures of so far. There is a link so you can send me a picture of you!
