For our May 19 meeting we will welcome Ann Moore from Texas! Ann is a national quilting instructor and designer for Sew Steady/Westalee. She will share with us her “Quilting Journey.” You will love seeing the ruler-work that she does – it is beautiful!
Wednesday, May 20 “Ruler Work Workshop”
Location: Fire Dept #5 on Virginia Pkwy
Time:10-4 Workshop $65.00 Kit Optional $15.00
We are currently taking sign-ups for this class.
"Learn how to quilt your own quilts using templates for your designs. Ruler work is guided free motion using templates to design and quilt your quilt. My class gives you a good sampling of templates and is considered an introduction to ruler work, we use my loaner templates so you can try before you buy, and only buy if you chose to. We will spend the day using several rulers (templates) designed to make quilting your quilt an easier process on your domestic machine. Let me teach you how to transform your quilt tops into finished quilts."
