We have changed up our UFO Club guidelines for 2020 , and this club will now be FREE to everyone!! At the end of the year, if you have a ticket, you will be eligible for prizes at our end-of-year party next June. There will be no money collected throughout the year for missed project goals, just tickets given out for accomplished goals....these tickets will enter you automatically in our prizes. And you don't have to come every month....the more tickets you earn, the more chances you have to win...it's that easy! We gather on the last Friday of every month for show and tell of our latest projects! Every month we set a goal(s) on what we hope to achieve in the next 4 weeks. IF we meet our goal(s), we get a ticket to put in for the drawing of prizes at the end of the year. IF you don't meet your goal, no problem, you just don't get a ticket...but you can re-set your goal for the upcoming 4 weeks. You can join any time through out the year. Prize month will be June 2021
You will first practice rotary cutting with fabric provided and once comfortable with rotary cutting, you will begin to cut the fabric you purchased for this quilt and begin to sew the blocks together. You will make a small quilt top and learn how to finish your quilt top by adding borders. Also learn how to prepare your quilt for quilting with your sewing machine. Learn to prepare binding strips, attach them to your quilt edge, and turn mitered corners. We will also discuss a 2 color binding technique that can give your quilt binding a pop of color. This is a great beginners class for learning to quilt. Call the store to set up an appointment!
