Service Description
*Please note that this class will be held at the new Arts Center location at 1716 Main Street in Newberry. The room location may not be determined until closer to date. We will have signs pointing the way if necessary. Join us for a Fun & Skill-Building Quilt Class! Add a new technique to your quilting skills box this month as we explore several different methods for creating HSTs—Half Square Triangles. This classic and versatile block appears in countless quilt designs and can be used in endless creative ways. Make multiples in matching or contrasting fabrics to form a quilt, or save your finished blocks to include in a beautiful sampler quilt using blocks made at multiple classes. Whether you’re looking to expand your skills or simply enjoy a relaxed and friendly sewing session, this class is all about learning, creating, and having a great time together. What to Bring: - 4 Fat Quarters or 4 different fabrics at least 10.5 inches in width. …If you wish to make a sampler quilt, I would suggest purchasing 3 yards of background and 1 yard of focus fabric. You can introduce other fabrics as you make the different blocks. - 50 wt Thread in neutral color - Quilt Ruler; 6 x 24-inch or 12.5-inch square ruler is great, but you can bring what you have - Rotary Cutter with new or extra blade. I prefer the smaller 45mm cutter - Scissors - Seam ripper - Basket or bag for loose threads and fabric ends- trash - A sewing machine in good working order and the basic know-how to use it • NAC has a limited number of machines available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please let us know in advance if you’ll need to reserve one. We also have the basic rulers and tools to share. Come sew with us, learn something new, and enjoy a fun, creative time!
