November 18th
Julie Cohagen presents "The Magic of Disappearing Blocks"
Start with a simple, familiar design like a four patch, hourglass or pinwheel. With a few strategic cuts and rotations and rearrangements, they transform into intricate, unexpected magical patterns. Like a magician's sleight of hand, the original block vanishes and is replaced by something completely new. If you can make half square triangles and put together a nine patch you can create the magic yourself.
This is fast and easy but looks like you spent hours making these gorgeous blocks!
PLEASE NOTE: We will be meeting in the church sanctuary for this meeting only. Please park on the west side of the church.
Doors open at Noon
Meeting 1:00–3:00pm
