Service Description

Saturday, Aug. 8 from 1pm - 4:30pm with Karla Irby Ready for some flipping fun? This month, we’ll explore creative techniques to make a dynamic “Ring of Stones” quilt block. Using strip piecing and stones set on edge, you’ll create a design that can read as a flowing circle, a bold geometric, or even a floral-inspired motif. This class is all about playful fabric choices and movement—perfect for quilters who want to experiment with color and design in a fresh way. Bring fabrics you’re excited about (even the bold ones!) and join us for an afternoon of creative exploration. ________________________________________ What to Bring Fabrics: • 4 fat quarters or 4 fabrics with similar total yardage • Consider fabrics with strong contrast or opposite colors on the color wheel • Don’t be afraid to go bold or a little wild! • Extra fabric for experimenting with color and design options (recommended) Tools & Supplies: • 50 wt thread (neutral color) • Rotary cutter (45mm preferred) with a sharp blade • Fabric scissors • Seam ripper • Quilt ruler: 6" × 24" or 12.5" square (bring what you have) • Optional but helpful: 4.5" or 6" square ruler • Small basket or bag for thread scraps Sewing Machine: • Bring a sewing machine in good working order • You should be comfortable operating your machine NAC has a limited number of sewing machines available on a first-come, first-served basis.
