In any good composition, especially quilts, there are many ways to balance elements and use values to best effect. If a composition has poor value contrast and is unbalanced it makes viewers uncomfortable and disengaged. Lorraine will guide students through exercises using paper and fabric to discover how to use value and balance to create quilts and artwork that are dynamic and have impact.

Students will learn basic garment sewing skills: pattern layout, pinning & cutting, sewing seams, elastic waistband & machine hem finishing. Pattern will be provided in class, see supply list for fabric requirements and supplies needed.

Come join a fun group that focuses on English paper piecing. Each month we'll explore various patterns and techniques used to make unique, beautiful quilts.
