Schedule Changes

Before we get to fun stuff, I have to let you know about a few schedule changes that will hopefully let more of you attend some of the Holiday Head start project workshops. The Fabric Bowl workshop will now be on October 14, from 6:30-9:30. The Stylish Go Anywhere Purse will also be moved, to October 28, from 6:30-9:30. Both workshops are $18.00 and you will have it done at the end of class. The Takeout Box on Tuesday, and Chicken Scratch on Friday will stay as originally scheduled. I have to honestly warn you that all these quick projects will have you making lots of them, and the more of them you make, the quicker they go.



I also need to remind you that Crazy Quilt Club is one week early, on September 18, and the Tisket a Tasket Applique project for September is postponed until October. Art Club will meet as scheduled on Tuesday. You will need blendable coloring materials as we will be working on making a color wheel.



Those of you working with us on Kelmscott, from William Morris in Applique need to let me know your plans for the next two sections of the quilt. September is the last of the flower blocks, and the quilt could be constructed and finished at this point, but if you want to add the cording as in the book, or the leaves border as on my wall hanging sample I will need to know. There are a few ways to attach the cording, and the leaves can be done with the scraps from the blocks so instead of offering a kit for October and November, you will simply be given a big discount on the needed fabrics for your chosen options. We will discuss in more detail at the October meeting. In the meantime, I found this post on The Textile Blog, about a wonderful William Morris design. The information here is great, and I had to share this bit of inspiration with you. The link should be click able. http://thetextlieblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/william-morris-and-snakeshead.html

The special for this weekend, as the weather gets cooler, is 40% off patterns for jackets, vests or any other wearable. Happy Stitching!!
