Machine Patchwork: Triangles Without Tears Sampler Quilt: Starts Wed Oct 12, 6 to 9 PM , 8 weeks, $40; level: beginner

In this entry level class, students will explore several painless techniques of making blocks that use triangles, and put them all together in a wonderful sampler. You will learn easy machine piecing techniques that can be fulfilled by using fat quarters, or yardage. (A fat quarter is a piece of fabric that is about 18” x 22.”) Minimum fabric requirements are one half yard each of 3 light, 3 medium, and 3 dark fabrics, and 2.5 yards for borders, plus scraps for pieced borders. For first class, bring sewing machine, thread, needles, straight stitch foot, scissors, rotary cutter, ruler and mat, and at least 4 fat quarters of varying values. Additional supplies include graph paper, pencil, and colored pencils. Space is limited, so stop by RMCC and sign up today. For more information, call Maureen Keese at the college: 479-394-7622 ext 1311.
