Please join us in welcoming Carol Taylor for an exhibit at the La Conner Quilt & Textile Museum, March 28-June 24, 2012! The Museum will host Carol when she travels from her home in New York to offer classes for the Western Washington area, April 15-17.
Do you love the look of those really skinny lines and curves, but don’t know how to make them? Now is your chance to learn. Carol shares the secrets of piecing them, and you can make those practice blocks into a lovely wall quilt (41 x 36) full of those “sensuous lines and curves”!
We will start with piecing simple lines that you cut improvisationally on small pieces of fabric that will turn out to be 7 ½” blocks. The middle section of “sensuous lines and curves” is made by couching and becomes the centerpiece for the quilt. All of this is done with no pinning and a minimal amount of measuring to free you up and allows you to think outside of the box. You’ll also learn how to finish your quilts with facings instead of bindings.
You’ll be thrilled with the resulting small quilt, which you can do in any 4-5 basic colors you like. Check Carol Taylor’s website to see more quilts Carol has made using these same techniques in her Linear Series, and then come make your very own version.
$125; One-Day Workshop; includes lunch.
