In this class you will learn an accurate method of curved piecing and how to design a quilt without a pattern.

Class Description
Do you have trouble remembering which needle is in your machine and can’t read the minute numbers etched on it? This little folder is exactly what you need to make your life much easier! The needle parking lot allows you to store any used needles in an allotted, named space until you want to use that one again. Other compartments store the needle cases with new needles available when you need to replace. Once you start using this you will wonder how you got by without one!

A kit is provided, but a small amount of fabric will be required. Comprehensive notes given for future reference.

Class Description
Quilting a large project is often beyond the abilities or desires of the home domestic sewing machine operator, so this class teaches you how it can be made easier to manage by quilting individual blocks or pieces of a quilt before they are joined together. There are various ways of doing this and they will all be covered in this class.
