One-Block Wonder Class
- Mar 30, 2024 10:00 am

Fabric Required: The Formula for the amount of fabric required is 6 repeats of fabric for the blocks. So if you have a 24? repeat you would multiply 6 X 24 which = 144?, divided by 36? = 4 yards for the blocks (but buy 4 ? to be safe). If you are going to use the original fabric in the borders buy at least 6 YARDS. Fabric Considerations: The best fabrics for this process are large prints with little background, especially leaves or animals. The rule of thumb is once the repeats are aligned, we will be cutting them in 3 ?? strips. If the design elements in your fabric are smaller than 4? you will not be taking the design apart and your blocks will look like the original fabric. So choose LARGE PRINTS. I have chosen fabric that had a large print but only had a 12? repeat. Instead of cutting my repeats every 12?, I skipped a repeat and cut every other one which made it a 24? repeat. You can only do this if the print is large enough. ? The Japanese or Kaffe fabrics are perfect for this. ? Too much background produces kaleidoscopes with no design and all background. ? Choose large floral or animal prints, avoid straight lines as in buildings or stripes. ? You will have fun if YOU like the colors. A darker background color helps the colors stand out. http://oneblockwonder.com/design-helper/# This is a wonderful website to get a preview of any material that you are thinking of using. Take a picture of the fabric and upload to the site following the simple instructions. It will give you a pretty good preview. DO NOT PRE-WASH THE FABRIC!!!! Basic Supplies: -Rotary Cutting tools: a rotary cutter with a new blade -Rulers: one 6? x 24? long and a 60-degree equilateral triangle ruler -Mats: you will need a 36? as we will be cutting fabric strips the Width of the Fabric (WOF) ? we will be working in pairs and joining the two 36? mats together. -Flower Pins. These pins lay flat; flat enough for a ruler to be over them and the ruler will still be flat against the fabric Basic sewing supplies: thread, ?? foot, Scissors, seam ripper, etc. -Sewing Machine in good working order. (New needle is recommended) -A plastic tablecloth with a flannel backing to use as a design wall. Don?t really need for the first class. I suggest the largest rectangle you can find. Small Safety pins or straight pins for keeping cut hexagons together when taking them home and to pin together both halves of the hexagon when placing on the design wall. I use small light weight safety pins. For a quilt using a 24? repeat you will need 100 to 120 small safety pins. You can also use straight pins. Approximately 200 Straight pins for pinning rows together. Bag Lunch and Drink Pre-Cutting: No pre-cutting is required, but have your fabric well pressed (press the fold out so we can start cutting right away. We will be working in pairs at the first class. The first class is taken up with cutting the strips and triangles. Bring your sewing machine but you won?t be setting it up until all the cutting for your pair is done. Questions: Please call me ? no stupid questions Dawn Schaben 540-354-8464

Breezy Sunflowers - with Sue Wilson
- Apr 24, 2024 10:00 am

Sunflowers always put a smile on my face. I think this class will put a smile on your face as well! It will focus on raw edge applique using the satin stitch on your machine. We will discuss various fusible products and stablizers. I will work personally with each attendee to create the best looking stitch for your individual machine, and we will document the settings so you have a future reference. Before working on your wall hanging, I will provide practice shapes to build your skills. The goal for the day will be to applique one sunflower to your background. Once you have learned this skill you will be able to use it on baby quilts, wall hangings, bags and so many more projects. Spring is a time of new beginnings and new skills. Join us!!
