Skill Level: All Levels

Description: Using the traditional quilt block or other set of compositional lines (bridge, building, etc…) as your starting point we will enlarge and magnify the lines of the structure and use them as our skeleton for building a pieced composition. From there we will explore a variety of ways to create texture, pattern, and repetition in that space.

Pepper Cory

Location:

One day

Wednesday, January 20th 2021

From 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM

 

Description: There’s just something unique about scrap quilts from the American Southern states. Pieced from fabric oddities and displaying quirky sets and casual stitching, these quilts are different from their ordered and bordered Northern sisters. Southern scrap quilts have migrated all over the country, just as people have moved, and might pop up anywhere. Why are these quilts important in the larger view of our craft? And can we learn anything from them? Here’s a show-and-tell of some of my collection of Southern scrap quilts to get the ball rolling. Will take questions at the end of the talk.

Pepper Cory

Location:

One day

Wednesday, January 20th 2021

From 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM

 

Description: Sashiko is a relaxing time-out from machine sewing. I've been stitching Sashiko (Japanese hand quilting) for about 15 years and now incorporate it into a lot of my quilt work. Sashiko combines well with many woven stripes and plaids that quilters already have in their stash. In addition to adding Sashiko to quilts, I use Sashiko to embellish clothing and home decorating items from curtains to table runners. This talk is an explanation of how I came to love the craft and then a show-and-tell of many of my Sashiko projects. Will take questions at the end of the talk.
