BLOCK BREAKDOWN

No rest for the weary...

I've managed to do a weeks worth of nothingness...
not really.

Taxes, yep, four days worth of paperwork.  Oh, and a doctor's appointment - whatever was blooming in Jersey and Virginia had my sinuses and allergies off the charts.  So the doctor switched up my allergy meds, boosted me to prescription Flonase, and threw in some antibiotics for what was turning into an aggravated sinus infection.  Good news, the fluid is slowly moving out of my ears and the pressure is gone.

So to the no rest part, you know, because in my world that week of paperwork was rest.  I'm now prepping for teaching at AQS Spring Paducah.  Yep, all of my supplies should have been on their way already, but no... I'm still waiting on bolts of fabric to arrive.  It's pretty likely that I'll be overnighting them last minute as once they get here I'll still need to cut them into class kits.


Okay, now on to the good stuff!  I'm teaching a bunch load of classes in Paducah:

Doodle Quilting - SOLD OUT
Build-A-Stitch - SOLD OUT
Pop Those Lines! - SOLD OUT
The Creative Process - only a couple spots left!
Functional Fills - SOLD OUT
Scrollwork - just a handful of spots left!



So, let me tell you about the two classes with only a few spots still available:


The Creative Process (Friday afternoon) - This is a design/ drawing class.  We'll start with a piece of paper and by the end of class, you will have designed your very own original quilt!  This process can be used to create both applique and wholecloth designs.  I'll share information on the next steps after the initial design as well as tips on proceeding from design to fabric.  




Scrollwork (Saturday morning) - If you follow me, you know one of my most-used stitches is the scroll.  In this hands-on class, I'll share several variations of the basic scroll as well as how to use them in more than just sashings.






So, if you'll be in Paducah, or anywhere nearby there is still room (for now) in those two classes.  If you've already signed up for the others - thanks, I can't wait to meet you all!  And, when I'm not teaching, you'll most likely find me in the Gammill booth.  Either way, make sure to stop and say hello!

  1. I just recently got a Gammill Optimum. It’s not A new one, but new to me. One of these days I hope to take a class from you.
