sew charming

Would you like to sew a table runner during your Spring Break?  Then this is the perfect class for you!

Wednesday, March 27

10:00 am - 1:00 pm / $25.

Teacher: Jennifer Kramer

This table runner is made using a charm pack (5" squares) and a 1/2 yard of fabric.  It is a perfect beginner quilt and just a fun way to decorate your table or buffet in time for Easter.  You will finish the top in class and also be given some tips for quilting it yourself.

Call {916} 209-3930 or stop by SKJ to register for the class and receive a class supply list.

I love sharing these class pictures with you.  

Isn't it fantastic how just the choice of fabrics can make a quilt look traditional  in blues, pale yellows and greens.

Using Kaffe Fasset fabrics make the same quilt look artistic and modern.  The choices are unlimited.  And all up to you!

block 69 - Practical Orchard 

block 81 - Snowball 

I have loved American Jane for such a long time.  I am so happy getting to use it for this quilt! 

block 9 - Box 

It will be at least a year long, to finish this 111 block queen size quilt.  It is an ongoing class and you can join in at any time.

 block  84 - Spool

Right now we are still trying to schedule a second class.  It has been such a popular class request.  I would love to see someone make this quilt out of batiks too!

block 31 - Friendship Star

What fabric would you use?

sidelights

In my shop you will see two of the Sidelights quilts.  The top picture features fabric called Sweet Shoppe. The Asian panel below, is from the Sew Katie Jean teacher, Kathy Hilton, her own stash. Don't you love how the fabric selection makes both quilts look so very different, but equally beautiful.

That's just one reason why this pattern is so popular.  It makes a versatile quilt and you can make it again and again and again, once you learn how.

Class space is still available:

yellow brick road

Last Tuesday, my friend Melody Lake, taught a class on the classic Yellow Brick Road Quilt pattern by Atkinson Designs.  We chose this sweet fabric from Cosmo Cricket, by Andover.  And you can also see the traditional yellow and blue combo on the cover of the Atkinson pattern.

This is the fabulous fabric combination that one of our students made in our class.  She picked a range from Robert Kauffman and a great Kona solid.  We were so lucky that night to see 4 different fabric choices from each student.  Each one so different.  I don't know why I didn't take more pictures for you!
