I'm frantically working to get class samples done this week. I think the sample can really sell the class, so it's got to be appealing and it's got to be done! So here's the new sample for my Start 2 Finish class.
Over 3 classes, they will cut, sew, quilt, and finish this little quilt, and of course, there will be homework, but it's a great next step for someone who has been doing tops and sending them out to be quilted. But you never know if a class will go.....so we'll see.
And what a pretty little package I got from the lovely Ms. Jolly at FQS....
I'm not normally a 30's person, but I've got a special project that these are going into. I don't know.....this collection might be pushing me towards more 30's projects. No I can't, not another type of fabric to collect!! someone stop me!!
especially because tomorrow I head out to Lancaster to visit with Susan from The Quilt Branch and we might be going to a quilt shop or two!
Hope you have a productive and fun day...
Hugs and Stitches!

Your sample certainly should sell your class...it is very inviting. I love your 30's fabrics...what line are they? I don't collect 30's usually, but I'm working on a baby quilt that could use some more of those colors. Have fun in Lancaster.

Your sample quilt is very appealing and pretty, too. *S* I really like the colors and the prairie points add interest. The 30s fabrics look great. Every time I say I won't buy or collect a certain line or type of fabric, it's a sign I will be buying soon.

"She" talked me into 30's and repros. I used to be a bright kind of person, but I have broadened my horizons. Are you going to join me?

Megan, Each of your posts is a delight to read. I'd join your class in a second if I could. Knowing how to make that little quilt would solve baby gift problems for years to come. I have just started my Dear Jane in 30's fabrics. I got the Aunt Grace line but as I start using those up I may have find those beautiful squares you have as well. In fact I think it will be absolutely necessary! Ha Ha. I love seeing all your projects and cant wait to see your Dear Jane progress as well. Love, Stacy

Hi, I'm Sally's daughter in law and happened upon your blog! I also post the class listings on her website. Would it be alright for me to include this picture with your class description?

The 30's fabrics from Jolly are beautiful. What is the brand? I am a 30's collector and am always on the look out for something new. Thanks!
