Learn an easy way to turn a

Edition (September 2008, Martingale Co.) This new edition of
this best-selling book offers updated designs and approaches to create a
vest you will love making and love wearing. It features the Batik
Beauty vest on the cover, showing the wonderful drama created by using a
focus batik fabric on one vest front and squares and alternating strips on
the other vest front. The radiant paper-pieced block adds just the
perfect detail. You will work on one vest side during the workshop

HEIRLOOM
MACHINE QUILTING
Thurs-Fri
Oct 30-31 or Tues-Wed
Nov 4-5 9:00pm
When she first introduced free motion quilting in 1984 at Houston Quilt
Market, Harriet set the quilting world on its ear, and has been changing
the look of quilting ever since. Heirloom Machine Quilting is Harriet's
favorite class to teach, as the enthusiasm of the students is contagious.
This is the class she is famous for.
Unique machine quilting techniques that will turn quilt tops into
heirlooms in a fraction of the time it takes to hand quilt will be taught.
The class will be made up of lecture filled with valuable information so that the
student knows what to expect and how to avoid the pitfalls along the way.
A thorough discussion of preparing the quilt top to quilt, work space,
threads, needles, etc. will be covered.
Hands-on exercises will be used to develop machine quilting skills, from
walking foot ditch quilting, to free motion feathers. Harriet is a master
at teaching students "how to learn to machine quilt". Most of
all, encouragement and excitement is taught, giving students permission to
become great machine quilters.
