Mystery Class

I recently taught a Friday night "Mystery" quilt class at Quilted Creations Quilt Shop, located in Headland, Alabama.  A mystery quilt is so much fun because you have no clue what you are making until you get started.  The pre-class instructions told everyone to bring various strips of fabrics, in various widths and colors.  Just place them in a paper bag and come to class!
The strips of fabric were sewn onto background fabric, each block was nine inches finished.  When completed, the blocks make a wonderful star quilt.  The completed quilt with borders measures 46 x 46 inches, just the right size for a lap quilt or baby quilt.

This is Betty peeking out from behind!  She used Robyn Pandolph fabrics.

This is Becky peeking out from behind!  

She used brightly colored fabrics, and machine embroidery to create a wonderful baby quilt.

More Class Photos

 I am sharing more photos from the Sewing Machine Mat class 

that was recently held at Quilting by the Bay.

I like the fun buttons used on these mats.

And here is the group photo!  What a variety of color choices and design.

Thank you so much ladies for participating in this class project.

I hope you enjoy using your mats and that you create something awesome!

Sharing Class Photos

Today I want to share some photos of the "Sewing Machine" mats made by some of the students from my recent class held at Quilting by the Bay in Florida.  What a fun project, and everyone had lots of fun sewing!

The top photo is a completed project, made using batik fabrics.

The other two photos are works in progress.   Don't you just love the color choices? Great job ladies. Thank you for coming to this class.

Quilting by the Bay

Quilting by the Bay Quilt Shop located in Panama City, Florida; has asked me to come and teach a class!  The class will be held in their newly renovated classroom that has seating for up to 28 students.  The classroom has ironing stations, great lighting, and a kitchen area for lunch. I am looking forward to meeting new friends and having a fun time sewing.  It will be fun to see the different fabrics the students have selected to make their sewing machine mats.  See you there tomorrow!  

Happy Valentine's Day!
