Chuck Nohara Friday Class @ Material Obsession
2015-02-13 10:00 - 15:00
Japanese patchwork is delightfully quirky and addictive, the patchwork blocks in Chuck Nohara’s 2001 New Patchwork Patterns are no exception. Once a month, Lorena will guide you as you create your own masterpiece sampler quilt.
Classes are guided by the needs of the students and loosely structured to cover block and layout design, different methods of construction including machine and hand piecing options, applique techniques and English paper piecing. With 2001 block options ranging from the idiosyncratic to the traditional there are enough blocks for a lifetime of quilts!
(All students are required to own a copy of the book, available from MO).

Been itching to make your own Social Tote using Carolyn Friedlander’s pattern? Have you been daunted by the requirement list and too scared to try it on your own? This is the perfect workshop for you! Part of the Quiltsmith Summer School Series, make this cute as a button carry all for your hand sewing in this one day workshop. Pick up a pattern and interfacing kit for $25 at Quiltsmith or contact me directly to arrange delivery.

This is a complex pattern to tackle in one day from beginning to end. To make the best of your workshop time you will need to do some prep before the class, class notes are available with the kit or by contacting the shop when you book in to the workshop.
