We're coming up on my favorite time of the month--the last week of our intro to patchwork class--this is when the magic happens! 

After a little bit of rotary cutting and some time spent sewing the strip sets later--and then we get to the really fun part--playing with layout and color.  There's nothing like having a design wall because it gives you some much needed perspective.  Step back--does your eye move around?  It should--because the goal here is to achieve balance.  What you don't want is for your eye to go straight to a cluster of dark blues or light pinks.   

No worries--these projects evolve--you move something here--add something else over there--and then almost magically--viola--you've got it.  You nailed it and it feels great!

Hey--for all of you  who've been asking me for a weekend Urban Amish class--you got it.

We'll be offering the Intro to Patchwork class on Sunday afternoons in October--the 5th, 12th & 19th @ 1p to 4p.

We've also added in a session of the Sewing Machine Basics this coming Tuesday night (9/30 @ 6:30p to 8p) for all of you who need a little sewing tutorial. 

Feel free to call or email me for more info.

cu soon,

Colette
