Classes

Rent our Handiquilter machine by the hour and do your own long arm quilting. Some of those larger quilts are just too much of a struggle to quilt on a conventional sewing machine. Still, you may want to do your own quilting. If that is important to you, come and learn how to use our machine. The class is 2 days and is set up at your convenience.

Day & Night Tablerunner Class with Diane Penci
Wednesdays, September 22th & 29th, 2010

Eleanor Burns has come up with a fantastic method for making a complex looking quilt block super simple. At first glance, this pattern for Day & Night looks like it was made only for advanced quilters. But quilting stripper, Eleanor Burns, is able to simplify it so that quilters of all levels can enjoy this dramatic design! Choose three fabrics and let the magic begin. Strips become blocks that are stitched together and suddenly, the beautiful starry pattern appears! If that isn't exciting enough, there are projects that use the scraps left from making the quilt blocks.
