Are you a quilter who has taken the Beginning Quilter Class, My First Quilt class, or just a quilter with one or two completed quilts under your belt and want to continue to grow your piecing skills? Are you ready to practice techniques on some more challenging blocks to improve your skills? If so, we have you covered! This is the first class in our Skill Builder Series, where we will focus on: Perfecting that 1/4" seam Improving our pressing technique Creating more challenging blocks using strip piecing and half square triangles For this class (and the entire skill builder series) we will use the book: Alice's Wonderland Sample Quilt; 100 Quilt Blocks to Improve Your Sewing Skills, and will construct the first 25 blocks in the book. The great thing about the Skill Builder series is this--you can take your 25 blocks and make a small quilt after the class is done, or, you can continue on to the other classes and complete all 100 blocks and make a large quilt! It's a flexible way for people to improve upon the skills they want to, or learn something new. For each class, students will be asked to bring their fabric pre-cut for the blocks covered in each class to ensure we have time to assemble all of them each class (5 per class). Here are the dates and times: Wednesday, October 28th; 5pm-8pm Monday, November 2nd; 5pm-8pm Monday, November 9th; 5pm-8pm Wednesday, November 11th 5pm-8pm Monday, November 16th; 5pm-8pm Brenda Gill will be the instructor for this course--we hope to see you in class!
