Join us for the next installment of our Block of the Month! We'll be using the Timeless with a Twist pattern bu Michelle Renee Hiattt and Sew on the Go. It has 3 planned block settings, but the options are endless if you don' want to make a full quilt. Use each block as a miniature, make a series of table runners or placemats, or even pillows.
There are 12 blocks in the series and we'll be doing two a month. This should give everyone plenty of time to finish them an still not drag it out past the point of interest. We'll be holding two classes a month, on a Wednesday and a Saturday. We must insist on everyone registering for a day. Please do not just show up on whichever works. We need to know ahead of time so that we can ensure the backroom is organized in a manner that allows seats for everyone.
For each class you will need to bring your sewing machine, a rotary cutter, appropriate rulers, and fabric (we recommend determining all of your fabric before your first class. Please stop out for help with this)
