Short Cuts from a Short Woman
This is a trunk show bursting with tips, tricks, shortcuts and a variety of innovations that will satisfy any quilter. I demonstrate traditional blocks made with non-traditional methods. With 25-35 quilts I show quick ways to create otherwise difficult blocks and finishing techniques: taking out the y-seam on Lone Stars; no hand sewing of quilt labels, rod pockets and binding - no kidding! I am always making new samples, so every time I give this trunk show I have at least a dozen new quilts using the latest fabrics. I am the Queen of Tips and Tricks and I love to share these things to make your quilting life easier and more fun.

Wednesday May 6 Workshop

This very traditional block has historically been pieced with templates or foundation pieced in two diagonal halves. I updated it to be foundation pieced in ONE unit, sort of like an off-center log cabin. It goes together quickly with pre-cut strips and made beautiful with today's fabrics in rich colored fabrics.
I love teaching about quilts. As a former high school math and English teacher I have created hundreds of instructional articles about quilts with my one simple rule: make it easy to understand and help every quilter be confident that he/she can make that same project, too! Math is not a dirty word, because I do a lot of it for you. All workshops are based on projects, but I cover a LOT of tips, tricks and sewing techniques during the workshop time.

Cost: $45
Kit: $8.00 kit fee paid to instructor includes multi-page, well illustrated handout along with all paper foundations to make 3 blocks.
Location: United Church of Colchester
Minimum Skill Level: Beginner
