I have three fabulous one hour lecture/demo classes for you at creativfestival west in Abbotsford B.C.

                  Tiramisu, One Block Four Ways

One class only Friday March 27, 11:45 to 12:45

Tiramisu is a yummy layered dessert that though beautiful is super easy to make.

It’s also a fantastic complex looking but equally easy quilt block.

In this fun filled class I’ll teach you how to construct a basic Tiramisu block then show you how to create four completely different looks using the same block.

                                     Free pattern.

One Meter Challenge Quilt

Friday March 27 from 2:15 to 3:15
Or
Sat. March 28 from 9:15 to 10:15

How many times have you bought a single meter of fabulous fabric and then found it a challenge to find a pattern to use it?

In this lecture/demo I’ll teach you how to add a couple of coordinates, fat 1/4's  or even some scraps and create a small lap quilt, baby quilt, table runner or the start of something big. 

Free pattern.

Spaces limited, register today!

More Tips and Tricks for Precision Piecing

Friday March 27 from 9:15 to 10:15
Or
Sat. March 28 from 10:30 to 11:30

Do you struggle with your 1/4 inch seam?

Do your points and corners seem to get away from you?

Do your blocks shrink or grow?

Are small pieces harder to sew with accuracy?

In this fun and fast paced lecture/demo I’ll show you a variety of easy ways to greatly improve your piecing skills.

The perfect class for beginning quilters to get off to a good start, experienced quilters who need a refresher and everyone in between.

Spaces limited, register today!
