February Sew-in Workshop 2019

Our member-led workshop given by Beth (@blue_dragonfly5) was about learning a quilt-as-you-go technique called "Interleave" held at the Belleview Public Library for eleven of us in attendance.

Beth began the class with a little history of how she developed this Michael Miller inspired design.  She then shared her interpretations with instructions and a demonstration of how to create her "Potato Chip" quilt design.

We laid out fabrics and found using our cell phones was very helpful in getting just the right placement.

Carefully drew lines with precision on the foundations..

Under Beth's guidance, we created our panels...  Looking good Ardie and Karen!

 

Karen and Dee have begun cutting their strips...

Karen has started sewing the strips onto the foundation...

                                                    .....After many laughs and a
                                                          ...um... few "Ta-Dahs"....
                                                               (...way to go Cindy!)

The designs began to appear!  Nice job Edith, Jane and Rosemary!!!

                                                            

Thank you Beth for all your hard work and time to bring us this workshop!

Next Sew-in will be held March 9 (second Saturday of each month)
