Fiber Layering on the Longarm
All day class, Confident Beginner to Intermediate Level
Just in time for spring. Come join us in a fun and creative class learning
how to layer and quilt at the same time on the longarm with Norma J Riehm,
award winning art quilter and national teacher.
Students will make a fiber layered art quilt with silk flowers, yarns,
Angelina, crystals, and other fun fibers. They will learn techniques for
layering, McTavishing, applying crystals, and making a perfect binding. This all
day class will spark your creativity and you will have a finished art quilt when
you leave class.
There will be a small trunk show of Norma's layered art quilts to let you
see the possibilities of using this technique. This is a very fun class that
inspires fresh ideas using the longarm.
What you need to bring:
Reading glasses if you need them for hand work, a notebook and a pencil, a
camera if you wish to take pictures. There is a kit fee for this class of $25.
The kit will contain everything you need to make the table runner including
embellishments and it is due the day of the class.
Background Fillers Gone Wild
Freehand Overall Class
All day class, Confident Beginner to Intermediate Level
This fun freehand overall class is just what you were looking for. Students
will be making a wholecloth using many fun refreshing designs without a rigid
class format. I will help you learn to relax when you are quilting and think
about quilting like drawing on a paper. We will cover the 35 designs on the
class sample but I will encourage you to think beyond my designs and take what
you quilt best to the next level.
What you need to bring:
A notebook and a pencil, a camera if you wish to take pictures. There is a
kit fee of $10 which includes a handout for the class and the fabrics for the
wholecloth and is due the day of the class.
