Make a few or a whole flock of these charming birds! No Charm School would be complete without a few Southern-style etiquette lessons thrown in. Old-fashioned ‘charming’ fun. Midnight Stars (4-Part Class) Dates: Tuesday, April 30, May 21, June 11 & July 2 (10 - 4) Cost: $165 Instructor: Carrie Rebeiz This quilt, designed by Jacqueline de Jonge, is stunning.

Mini patterns now available (special order patterns through Cottontail Quilts).   Hand Quilting Date: Wednesday, May 8 (10 - 1) Cost: $50 (Includes Kit Fee) Instructor: Muriel Pfaff The ultimate finish for any quilt, hand quilting gives a quilt an indefinable elegance, and gives the quilter a sense of peace and purpose. Learn marking, basting, and hand stitching on a sample that could finish into a pillow. Each student will receive a kit during class as part of their class fee.  Binding 101    Date: Saturday, May 18 (1 - 4) Cost: $35 Instructor: Muriel Pfaff Learn the technique of bias double-fold binding with crisp corners and machine or hand finishes, all while making a cute "Three Pocket Purse". Class will also include a discussion of other binding techniques such as mock bindings and "pillow turn" bindings. Rather than working on a quilt, students will work on attaching bias binding to an 18" square of pre-quilted fabric. This will ensure that everyone completes turning four corners and finishes off the ends. (Kit fabric may vary from photo below.) Twinkle Star (2-Part Class) *NEW CLASS Date: Friday, May 24 & Friday, June 21 (10 am – 3 pm) Cost: $75 Instructor: Carol Stanek The Twinkle Star pattern includes three distinct groups to create a 38” x 38” quilt. A lone star center makes up Group A, a series of 7-1/2” blocks nestled in each corner of the lone star makes Group B, and a border squares off the quilt as Group C. The pattern uses basic paper piecing techniques that can be applied to many of our lone star projects. This is a great introductory pattern for learning how the Quiltworx lone star quilts are made in a small project that can be completed very quickly. Basic paper piecing experience required. Pattern Size: 38″ x 38″.   Judy (Neimeyer) "Playtime"  Date: Saturday, May 25 (10-4) Cost: $15 Certified Instructor on Hand: Carol Stanek Have you been working on a Judy Neimeyer pattern that you simply need some help with?
