ATTN: PAPER PIECING STUDENTS!

Here is what you will need to bring - which is very little, I am happy to say.

a few pins, but not huge ones
a size 90 needle for your machine
a finger pressing thingy - nice but not mandatory
F8's, FQ's, scraps of fabric


I am assuming there will be a rotary cutter/matt and an iron already there!

The patterns I am bringing are for 6" finished blocks. They are an assortment of flowers, hearts, houses, trees, baskets, etc. etc. You might want to have a solid/near solid piece of fabric backgrounds. i.e. sky, grass, white, off white. (Especially if you plan to make more than one block and want them to coordinate)

The quilt in the pix below is the results from a PP class I taught at my hospital...a pink & white memorial for a co-worker who died from cancer. I think it turned out well considering 95% of the students had never made a quilt! (It was a bit challenging at times, to say the least. LOL) Most of the patterns I will be bringing are the same as in this quilt. BTW, we raffled off the quilt, made $1,000 and donated the $$ to Amer.Cancer Society.

Questions??

pins, sz 90 needle, wooden thingy
