BETH FERRIER
We're very excited to have Beth come and teach for us this summer. In addition to all her designing and teaching, she also writes for one of our trade magazines and it's always the first thing we read! Beth will be teaching 3 different workshops and she's also hosting our Quilt/Dessert Party this summer. If you came when we did it with Kim Diehl, you know that it's a great evening.

"Quilting is one of the great joys in my life, and I'd like to share that with you. During our time together, I will encourage you to do your personal best and remind you that perfection is not a reasonable goal. I am very much a process oriented person. It's important to enjoy what we are doing, or we might as well be at work! My classes are always great fun and jam-packed with my Power Quilting tips and techniques to get the very most joy out of your quilting time." - Beth Ferrier

KIM DIEHL

Kim has been a large presence in Western New York in the past couple of years and we're proud to be having her back again. She has some great new workshops, a brand new line of fabric coming in June and a new book coming out in October - Simple Graces. If you haven't taken a class from her before, you will love it. She's very laid back, but you walk away from the day with a wealth of knowledge - plus it's just a plain, fun day!!

Scrap Basket Blossoms
Friday, September 24
10:00 am - 4:30 PM - $65
Gather scraps from your favorite prints and treat yourself to a fun and relaxing workshop as you stitch this traditional quilt. The variety of gentle shapes in this design are perfect for learning Kim's invisible machine appliqué technique, and you'll discover just how easy it can be to produce consistently sharp points, smoothly rounded edges, and vines with flawless curves. This modern time-saving method is easily mastered and will enable you to achieve finished shapes that closely duplicate the look of needle-turn appliqué, but they can be sewn in a fraction of the time! And because you'll love stitching this block so much that you won't want to stop, bonus directions for an alternate four-block version of this project will be provided in class.
