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.
