May 26, 2012 – No Strings Attached!
Classes from The Quilter’s Gallery
No Strings Attached! Friday May 25 or Saturday, May 26, 2012. 10 am-4 pm. $35.00
We did a demo of this quilt during our March class and everyone seemed to want to do this as an all day class. Some people call this a “spiderweb”. It’s an old, traditional design that uses “strings” of fabric sewn to a foundation fabric. A string is an unusable piece of fabric. Little do they know! You can clean a lot of small, leftover bits of fabric out of your stash. Don’t have a stash? I’ll bet you have a quilting friend that would love to “gift” you some of her stash. We’ll start with some colorful fabrics for the stars and then add strips of various fabrics for the spider webs. If you are just starting to quilt, this design breaks down into simple units. No points to match or fussy seam allowances. Experienced sewers can take pleasure in creating something from all their leftovers.
We’ll have another demo in the afternoon, but we are not sure what that will be .
Class starts at 10 am and finishes about 4 pm. The classes will be held at Cool Spring Methodist Church, 1902 Mocksville Rd, Cleveland, NC—that is Hwy. 64 about 8 miles East of Statesville, and is easily accessible from either I-77 or I-40.
To register for the class, call Cindy Page, 704-376-2531 to reserve your space, then mail checks to 224 Woodleaf Road, Cleveland, NC 27013. Payment is required at the time of registration to hold your space in the class. A supply list with directions to the venue will be emailed to you upon registration.
Hope to see you then.
