Jelly Roll Race Quilt Top Class: Most people think of the tasty treat when they hear “jelly roll”. When speaking of fabric, a jelly roll is a set of 2 ½" x 40" strips of fabric rolled in a spiral. There may be 10, 20 or 40 strips in a roll, and there may be duplicates or all different fabrics included.
The Jelly Roll Race is a fast way to create a 50" x 66"(approximate size) quilt top in a short amount of time. All the stitching is straight sewing, so this is a great class for beginners! A great way to use up those long scraps! There are many examples online of finished tops and different ways of arranging the jelly roll strips; you may want to look at some before class. For this class you will need: --1 Jelly Roll 40 strips 2 ½" x 40" (I like to use my fabric stash and cut one strip each from 40 fabrics) You may want to cut off any selvages before class. --A sewing machine (may be borrowed from Lancaster Creative Reuse) --Basic sewing supplies-thread, scissors, tape measure Note: At the end of this class, the top only will be completed. Directions on possible methods to complete will be discussed. Saturday, October 24th 1:00-3:00 PM in the new Basement Classroom (downSTAIRS) -no elevator Saturday, November 7th 1:00-3:00 PM in the new Basement Classroom (downSTAIRS)- no elevator $25 per person. Class size is limited to 4 in order to offer individual help Buy tickets via www.TicketLeap.com - or at the register! MASK REQUIRED |

POSTPONED: SCRAPPY Quilt Top ClassThis quilt top is an easy way to use up all those small pieces of fabric that you’ve kept buying, not knowing what to use them to make. The largest “scrap” you will need is 5 “ x 3 ½ “. You can use scraps in one color family (all blues), two color families (purple and green), or a mixture of everything! This is an easy top to make because it is all straight sewing. The pattern is a variation of the Fabric Fusion pattern available for purchase online at several quilting websites.
You will need: --A working sewing machine (OR we have some at the store you may borrow if needed) --Basic sewing supplies-scissors, thread, bobbin(s), seam ripper --2 ½ yards white or white on white fabric-please cut 25 1” strips across the width of the fabric before coming to class -- Lots of scraps cut into the following sizes- 3 ½” x 2”, 3 ½ “ x 3”, 3 ½” x 5” at least 35 of each size. Easy way to cut the blocks is to cut a 3 ½” strip of fabric, then cut into smaller sizes. (some pre-cut blocks will be available during class, but no guarantee as to colors) |
