May 3 & 4, 2014: Barbara Shapel from Washougal. Check her out on barbarashapel.com . Barbara will be teaching a 2 day workshop titled “Waterdance” Saturday and Sunday, each day from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. Sign up starts now, it will be open to the public for sign-up mid February. This workshop will fill quickly so don’t wait too long to sign up and put down your deposit. Class cost *$110.00. Supply list will be available with $75.00 deposit due on or before February 3rd meeting.

Workshop Description:  The sun or the moon – which will you choose? This pattern can be interpreted in either way. In any way, however, the value of the fabric will be important in making the overall results sing. By using an easy freezer paper machine appliqué method, this complex-looking design is actually quite easy to make! The pattern includes a master drawing and step-by-step instructions to complete a quilt that measures 57" x 19" when completed. Workshop attendees will also learn how to place a sun on one side of the piece, and a moon on the reverse and quilting instructions to really help make the water come to life. Most students will have the quilt top completed by the end of the second day.
