Sewing Classes

"Flower Power" Session One

This four-part class will be held to facilitate different aspects of the creation of this beautiful pattern. In addition to a wall hanging, the individual strips can be used for table runners, placemats, bed runners, or vertical wall hangings. The pattern is available at Flower Power (PDF) – Amanda’s blog (amandamurphydesign.com) and is required for the classes. Each session can be a stand-alone segment, so you can register for all segments or the individual ones you desire.

Session 1 – Digitizing Pattern Placement Layout

Each row contains 5 printed sheets, and we will learn to scan them into the Brother and Baby Lock machines with Design Center and IQ Designer capabilities. After scanning, we will sew them onto the strips, connecting them with the built-in projector and camera technologies.

COST: $30

"Crazy Curves Table Runner"

Join Eunice to learn how to put those perfectly curved pieces into the opposing inverted hollow. As a clothes sewer, when I see this, I think of double rows of gathering threads and LOTS of pins. None of that here. You will create a very attractive table runner without pins or craziness.

Check out the book from BackPorch Design to get inspired by many other uses for this technique.

Acrylic templates are also available for purchase, with pin and no pin methods. Eunice will review both!


TIME: April 3rd, from 10-:30-2:30
COST: $30

NOTE: Kits are not included, stay posted after registration for an email from Eunice that will include a material list!

"edge to Edge"
                 Repeat Class

After lots of requests, we’ve decided to bring back Eunice’s Edge-to-Edge quilting class! Everyone can attend, whether you’ve had the class before or not. If you have an Edge to Edge design already, you may use it.

Eunice will provide a design for those of you who don’t have any edge-to-edge designs yet, and she will contact you, after signing up, with instructions as to what you will need to bring.
