Join Betsy for Sew Together, a virtual quilting bee! June 3rd is Demo Night, where participants are invited to showcase and share their favorite quilting tools and techniques. You’ll see demonstrations of ruler work, the AccuQuilt Go! cutter, and much more!  |
Table runners are a great way to spruce up, and they make great gifts, too. Make your own Liberty Table Runner on Saturday, June 4 at 11:30am.  |
Capital Cares: Interfaith Shelter Quilts is back! Join Lori on Thursday, June 9, 11-3 to work on quilts. These quilts are treasured by the women who receive them, and as each woman leaves the shelter for permanent home, they take "their" quilt with them.  |
Are you afraid to make color choices? Do you grab the hand of the nearest shop clerk to help you pick out fabric? Do you hope and pray for kits so you don't have to make the choices yourself? We can fix that! Join Pam for two sessions on gaining color confidence! You will gain confidence as you train your eye to see color and read the mood of fabrics as she walks you through a series of play-like exercises. Class starts Saturday, June 11 at 11am.  |
| Quilting with rulers is a wonderful way to add curved designs to your quilting repertoire! This is an ideal compromise to create precise yet interesting stitching on your quilts using your domestic machine. In this 5-week class, starting Sunday, June 12 at 3pm, you will make a 9-block sampler of ruler work designs.  |

We have free pillowcase kits available! We donate all pillowcases to Ryan's Care for Smiles, who in turn distributes them to children battling serious illness. Pick one up next time you're in the shop, then complete it and return on your schedule.  |
We also have free small kennel quilts available. These little quilts are sent to shelters who take in pets displaced by natural disaster. To quilters, they are a great beginner project, a use for leftover fabric, and a place to practice free motion skills. To use your stash, visit www.kennelquilts.com  |
