Class, Crazy Quilting Extravaganza with Kelley Richardson

Saturday, Jan. 11, 12:30pm - 4pm

If you've ever been captivated by the charm of Crazy Quilts and yearned to create your own masterpiece, this is the perfect workshop for you. Dive into the world of colour and texture as we guide you through the creation of a Crazy Quilt block.  Making 4 blocks will create a runner or make just one for a delightful pillow. No prior quilting experience needed—just bring your enthusiasm, a sewing machine with those decorative embroidery stitches you've wanted to explore, and a collection of fabric scraps and threads, all eager for a second life. Discover the joy of combining unique fabrics (not just cottons), experimenting with embroidery stitches, and creating a one-of-a-kind Crazy Quilt block that tells your story. Join us for a creative adventure where your imagination knows no bounds, and every stitch adds a touch of whimsy to your quilting journey!

Please bring:

• sewing or embroidery machine in good working order
• standard sewing kit (seam ripper, pins etc)
• fabric scissors
• a selection of fabrics
• 1/2 yard of muslin or plain cotton
• new needle in your machine size 80/12
• decorative threads, ribbons, doilies, buttons etc.
• embroidery foot

Please refrain from wearing perfume on the day of class.
