Coming up this week is the Redlands Sewing Center’s Club and Class preview day, where all the instructors talk about their clubs and classes, showing off the projects that you make in them. This year it’s this Wednesday, May 1st, presentations starting at 10 am, 2 pm and 6 pm. The cool thing about this is not only do you get to meet the teachers and see what they’ve cooked up, but you can save 10% off registration! This is the only day of the year that they offer discounts on clubs and classes, so this is the day to register! You don’t even have to be there, you can call them starting at 9 am and register over the phone: 909.792.3994
I’m offering the following classes:
Improvisational Quilting Club
Third Wednesday Evenings monthly from September – May in from 6:30 – 9:30 pm (no class in December)
Piecing a quilt improvisationally is very freeing – there are no corners to match, straight lines are optional and the end result is truly one of a kind! Each month we will learn a different type of improvisational piecing and make either a large block or a few small blocks in that style. Depending upon how much you enjoyed that particular style of piecing, you could make a pillow or table runner, a baby quilt, or a full sized quilt with what you learned. The last month we’ll learn how to create a quilt top made from different style blocks and assemble a sampler quilt that could possibility look something like this:
