String Quilts Saturday Workshop

Check the Basic Supply list at top of page.
-Also bring a design wall of flannel or fleece or batting.
-This is a foundation piecing project so old sheets, old soft fabrics that would not add extra bulk to the seams. Several meters of Poly cotton broadcloth would be a good substitute. White/ beige or pastel works the best. All my samples are on fabric foundations BUT if you insist…..you can do this on paper( it’s your quilt/your rules)
-Spend a few evenings decluttering your scraps, your drawers of odds and ends and little bits. We’re looking for skinny strips but almost every length can be used . Bring a large assortment or your whole collection. Some chunks will cut up into excellent strings.
-If you are a beginner and do not have a stash of fabric – then you can choose to work on some blocks useing the guild’s fabric for community quilts.
-Wooden Iron or plastic finger presser. These are tools to press seams without an iron. I usually use my fingernail , but if you have such a tool – please bring it.
