March 2018 - Technique Night
We have designated March as the month for our guild members to share a favorite technique with the rest of the guild. We have six members who will demonstrate their technique this month. Each demonstration will be repeated four times during the meeting giving you a chance to view your choices.
Kathy Kenney – Want to try hand sewing and prepared Appliqué? I will
demonstrate a prepared-edge method, that is, the edges are turned prior to the stitching process.
Pat Hechmer- Straight Line Quilting. Create beautiful quilts with your
domestic machine using only straight line quilting. I’ll have five quilts to
illustrate the versatility of quilting in straight lines.
Sue McGuire - Rulers for Free Motion Quilting. See a demonstration using rulers for straight line work without turning the quilt under the machine, quilting smooth curves with no marking and more. A technique used by longarmers now being adapted for use on home machines.
Audrey Moore - Are you scared of putting zippers into your project? I will demystify sewing zippers into purses and accessory bags. I will have
examples of the various steps and general directions.
Jennine Poulin - Would you like to add a new twist to your quilts? Come
learn how to make a Flange Binding. It’s quick and easy but adds that extra twist without a lot of extra work.
Marty DelNevo - Need a quilt label and you don’t want to do it by hand? I’ll
demonstrate how to use PowerPoint to make the job easier.
