yooper quilt girls

On the Moda pattern, Parasols in the Park one of my students was able to get all 12 points to meet neatly in the middle by pressing open her wedge seams and doing a bit of trimming. Thinking on your feet and improvising is key to making your creative endeavors a success. I was happy to see a student think outside the box and to be able to share that with everyone else.
The "I spy" class was canceled due to a scheduling conflict. This happened to also be the same night as our elementary schools annual "variety show". An "extra" class will be added to the end to make up for this lost time. The next "I spy" class should see students with nearly all the fabrics collected that they will need to finish a quilt. We will have had nearly 3 months of time to gather the necessary novelty fabrics. If you are still finding yourself short, please check the "free box" at Brambleberries for what you may need. This is a give and take box so please contribute a novelty at least 5"x5" for each piece of fabric that you take.
As I mentioned in an earlier post I have plans for a Circle quilt. This is not set in seams, it will be following "Easy Bias-Covered Curves" by Wendy Hill, look for this book at Brambleberries, it is required for the class that is offered as a one day event in March.
Now without having run this blog by Vicki x 2 and Deana, I must add here that this my own personal blog not endorsed in any way by Brambleberries Inc. Nor are any of my own opinions shared here by the above mentioned shop and its owners. The same can be said for The Piecemaker's Quilt Guild.
Our next guild meeting is coming up soon. It is a "business" meeting with much to discuss. Don't want to leave the planning for the annual show to the last minute. LOL.
