New Pieces is pleased to announce that our beloved Carol Lee is back on the class schedule in June, teaching two great classes on Thursday evenings.
On June 2nd she will reprise her perennial “Zen of Hand-Quilting” . Those of us who learned hand-quilting the hard way (trial & error, or from a book) can vouch for the wisdom of learning this skill from someone who knows all the tricks and tips.
While you practice your stitching Carol Lee will answer your questions and discuss supplies and resources for hand quilters.
If hand quilting is a meditation, Carol Lee is our guru.
On the following three Thursdays (June 9th, 16th and 23rd)Â Carol Lee will teach a class that’s good for beginners, but appropriate and valuable for students at all skill levels –Â “Begin with the Bento Box” .
This Bento Box pattern is a New Pieces tradition when pieced with dark and bright Asian fabrics (available in kit form in the Store).
The pattern is equally wonderful when done in batiks, or prints, or…..whatever you can imagine.
If you’re looking for a next project that looks harder than it really is, has straightforward construction and color combinations that sparkle, Bento Box is the class for you.
