These pieces have plans, and they’re hoping others will have plans, too!
Wanna learn to quilt and do it here in Mendota? Work hard for two days and leave with a quilt? Chris Schanzenbach and I are hosting a quilt class on Friday and Saturday, November 15-16, 9:30 am until 4:30 pm. Class will be held in my guest house, lower level.
Cost is $35 payable at the time of registration and includes lunch both days. There will be additional costs for your supplies and tools (Chris will provide a materials list following registration). Instruction will be geared to first-time quilters, but more experienced quilters are also welcome. Come and enjoy a mini-retreat, relaxing with your neighbors, and making a beautiful quilt. Something for a new baby, wall hanging or just to keep your lap happy!
You’ll need to bring your own sewing machine and know how to operate and sew with the machine.
For me…it’s what is in this bag…just fabric today but oh the possibilities! Did you think I was going to be the instructor? My sisters are rolling around in the floor laughing. No way. Chris is the master quilter. I’ll be taking the class with you. Learning and having fun.
Little pieces of fabric…they’re lining up and thinking about being a quilt. “We just know we’re going to be beautiful!”
Such pretty colors…how fun this will be!
To register, send $35 with your name, email, and phone number to:
Chris Schanzenbach
5505 Mendota Road
Mendota, VA 24270
Space is limited. All registrations must be received by November 9. Questions??? Contact Chris at cmschanz@gmail.com.
Hope you have fun. I’ll work both days but then I work most day. If I can help in any way let me know.
Thanks! I’m sure Chris will ask you to let folks know. Including myself, we have four people attending that I’m aware of. We need to have a total of eight.
Wish I could come! Have fun! Your guest house is a lovely place to quilt:)
Alsa…I wish you could come too. We are moving the exercise equipment and adirondacks and setting up four ables for eight people.
I’ll send my money, but I probably will be able to take only the one day. Maybe she can give me a list of tips for the second day. I’d just not go in on that Saturday and take the hit, but Faith’s play is going up the end of November and Hal and I want to go up to see it, meaning, I have to call in on the Saturday after the production.
Eva, there is a key phrase in that post. “Know how to operate and sew with the sew machine” ?????
I get no respect. I’ve had my new sewing machine out. It s easier to use. I’ll sit between you and Nancy in the UNLIKELY event I encounter difficulties!
