I have just put out my class list for the first term of 2017. Here are the classes.
Easter Egg Hunt Quilt  3 Wednesday 15th & 22nd Feb & 1 Mar 7-9pm OR Sunday 9th February 9:30am - 4pm $45
I created this cute quilt over the anniversary weekend and am very pleased with it. You can vary the design to suit, you don't have to include the words. It is raw edge fusible and machine quilted and appliqued. Children can have fun counting the number of easter eggs they can find.
Project Workcase  Friday 24 February 10am - 12 noon  $15
Create a project workcase to carry your work around in. Using sewable vinyl makes it easy to see what is in the bag. You can use scraps or a feature fabric.
Ice Dyeing  Tuesday February 28th 7-9pm  $15 + materials fee
I will show you how easy it is to create fantastic fabric using ice dyeing as your technique. Because the dye powder works its way down through the melting ice you never know what sort of pattern you will get. I shall show you a variety of folding techniques to create extra patterns.


Circles in Patchwork  Sunday 12 March 9:30am - 4pm  OR  3 Tuesdays 7,14, 21 March 7pm - 9pm  $45
Dianne will show you how to sew circles in patchwork - this will include a variety of hand and machine applique methods plus set in sewing. Trying to take some of the difficulty out of it for you, by showing you these methods and helping improve your skills.

Summer Dresses   Thursday 23 March 7-9pm  $15
Create these lovely yet so easy to sew dresses. You can add borders, trims, appliques to make them all look different. Fun and quick to make. Sewing machine required.


Red & Black Quilt  Sunday 26 March 10am - 4pm  $45
I created this quilt using a pack of 8" squares that had been sitting around for a while. I cut them into random width strips and used them with the red background fabrics for a bit of a zing. Very happy with the way the turned out. You can use scraps or choose a colourway to use with this pattern. Various other layouts as well, I just liked this one best with these fabrics.



Jill Maas Doll Class   Sat & Sun April 22 & 23  9:30am - 4pm each day  $110 plus $10 pattern fee
Jill Maas is with us once again teaching her fabulous cloth dolls - you have a choice of either Flint and Rodger Rabbit or Danika & Roco. Always a fun weekend class.
