Saturday Sampler 2011

It's that time again and we hope you will join us! On Saturday, Jan 11, we will offer another Saturday Sampler class. We offer three class times, 8:00, 9:00, and 10:00 a.m. There is no need to sign up ahead of time, simply choose your favorite time and join the FUN!



Pay the beginning fee and sit through the short class, take your kit home and make the block then return next month with your finished block and receive the next block free. We work hard to make our class interesting, informative and entertaining. You'll learn lots of quilting tips and tricks. . . and enjoy the company of fellow quilters and friends. You can make 12 blocks for $6-10.00 depending on which pattern you choose. This year we will have three different quilts to choose from, make one. . . or make them all!



We look forward to seeing you in class . . . the second Saturday of each month. It's a great way to make a beautiful quilt at little cost and learn new skills in the process. See you there!

Saturday Sampler quilts continued. . .



Here is an idea for finishing your pieced sampler blocks made this year. Unfortunately the photo doesn't do the quilt justice . . . someone around here has got to take photography lessons! But maybe you can get the idea. This is a full size bed quilt, a great way to use the blocks you have made.
Thanks so much to all the great ladies who support our Saturday Sampler program. You are a delight and we look forward to seeing you each month.

Saturday Sampler Quilts


It feels like the end of the semester and these are the test samples! We have had a great time working throughout 2010 on an Apron quilt that celebrates our Grandmother's era. Here is our version of the finished project.



We love the cowboy quilt, we used the same Let's Twist border technique on the Apron quilt . . . ask to see the book and ruler when you are in the store. It is very easy to make and really sets off our blocks. Won't it be a treat to give this quilt to a favorite cowboy!
