Beholden - Corey Yoder
August 22, 2019
$50
I have long admired Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilts. Typically, these quilts have been hand pieced or constructed using templates or specialty rulers. I am so excited to have come up with a technique that allow us to piece a quilt that looks like a Grandmothers Flower Garden quilt without using either of these methods. No hand piecing, templates, or specialty rulers are required. Beholden uses regular piecing methods and these blocks come together beautifully to recreate the look of a Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt without the time traditionally spent piecing these beautiful quilts.
Class fee includes Beholden pattern.
Class time: 10 AM - 1PM

Getaway is a just released pattern by Quilting Affection Designs. Butterflies are soaring to escape this busy world and are depicted in a single block repeated to create a traditional 9 patch grid. The quilt finishes at 45 in x 45 in and utilizes Studio 180 Design Tools: Square Squared, Split Rects, and Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star. Sounds difficult you say? Well, let Dee show you the simplicity of these tools and how accurate they will make your blocks turn out.

Dresden Plate quilts are one of those quilts that seem much trickier than they actually are. In fact, if you have never made a Dresden Plate quilt block, you are in for a real treat when you realize how these blocks are pieced. We will begin by talking about how to cut our Dresden blades, learn how to sew the blades together, sew the blades to our background fabric, and finally add a beautiful Ohio Star block to the center. You will wonder why you’ve waited so long to make a Dresden Plate quilt!

The Quilt Revival of the 1930’s - The Christ Collection
August 24, 2019
$15
Saturday, August 24 we'll begin the day with Arlan and Pat Christ sharing their interest in antique quilts. They began collecting quilts as a hobby and it has grown into a passion to secure the heritage of antique quilts. The focus of the “Quilt Revival of the 1930’s” presentation is to take you on a journey through the depression era including the “feed sack frenzy.” The lecture will include examples of pastel colored quilts introduced by Marie Webster, kit quilts and patterns printed in newspapers. In addition to showing approximately 30 quilts they will also provide the history and various examples of feed sacks and their uses. There is a definite charm and fascination that occurred during this time period. A time of utilizing what was available to you…a time when “make do” was a common phrase. We want you to feel the sense of pride and hope that was sewn into these quilts. Enjoy the delightful quilts that were created by incredible women during a challenging time…a time when “make do” was said with pride.
This trunk show is open to the public.
