Sara Nephew 3-D
Many people are fascinated by the look of 3-D quilts. Learn how to achieve Sara Nephew's complex-looking designs by starting with construction paper cut-outs (provided) and progressing to stitching your own dynamic quilt using light, medium, and dark fabrics. You'll learn how to use Sara's 60 Degree Triangle rulers to speed cut and assemble three different 3-D blocks. Precision cutting and sewing are a must, so please, no true beginners.

Saturday Software Sampler
Saturday Samplers are so much fun that we've started a new one for Bernina Software users. It works in much the same way as a regular one - a $5 fee enrolls you in the program. Each month, there will be a live video presentation with a Bernina educator who will lead us through a software lesson. After the presentation, we will work through the design on our own computers. Each month, you will receive a CD that contains a recording of the program and instructions for the project that uses that design. If you return the next month with the project completed, the next class and CD are free. If you don't come, are late (the video starts promptly at Noon), show up without the project, or (gasp!), haven't finished it, you'll pay $5 for the class. Optional kits will be available each month for purchase. You'll need to bring a laptop computer with the Bernina Embroidery Software loaded, your dongle, and paper for notes. Come join in the fun!
