Bigfork Quilts, Etc.
October, 2016
Hello,
It is feeling a lot like Fall here. The trees
are turning beautiful colors and the nights are cooler. I have to say I am
enjoying the fact that the days are still warm.
We have a light schedule so far this month
which makes it a good time to schedule private or small group classes. If you
have a desire to learn to sew or have a few friends that would like to sew together, call and schedule a time. Private classes are $10.00 per hour,
minimum 2 hours.Please note we will be starting our winter hours mid-Oct. The shop will be closed Sundays and Mondays starting the 17th.
Thank
you,
Sandi
& StaffCome and join us for a fun day of quilting. Large tables are available for cutting, ironing boards,irons and knowledgeable staff and quilters to answer questions. There is always laughter and conversation. We can order lunch in or bring your own.
Learn to
Foundation Paper
Piece, Tuesday, Oct. 11, *Pam*
10am-4pm. $35.00
Have
you wanted to learn foundation paper piecing but think you are afraid? Fear no
more! Pam will teach this beautiful table topper and show you how easy and fun
the process can be. The book is required and there is some homework before
class.
Ok,
I am behind on my Heirloom Blooms project. (It makes the fun of it last
longer.) Bring any handwork project and join us for a day of stitching. I might
get block one done this week!
Several
of you have mentioned wanting to use the Sew Cherished ruler to create one of
the quilts that use it. This is your chance to come to class and learn the
technique. Shown are a few of Clara's blocks laid out. This ruler really makes curves easy!
Applique Basics and Beyond!
Fusible Appliqué Raw Edge/fusible
Appliqué is a fun and simple way to create beautiful quilted pieces. In
this class, Monique will teach you her tips and tricks for using different
types of fusibles, fabric choices to make your creation pop, and how to get
comfortable stitching down your projects. Students may bring any pattern
or choose one of Monique's appliqué designs. Already have a fusible
project put together but now you're afraid to start stitching? Get that project
out of the drawer/box/cupboard and let's play with thread!
I want everyone to know
that we are doing our best to have all of the supplies needed for our classes.
We intend to have patterns, fusibles, rulers, threads, needles, etc. If you do
not have something at home already, please give us a call to see if we have it
available.
