Scrappy is my name; 1” Squares are my game
Half-Day Workshop
9 am - 12 pm, Saturday, September 19
Let’s dispel the tired tale that stitching 1.5” squares is just tedious. It can be a lot of fun! And while you’re at it, you can bust those scraps you have been accumulating - you didn’t toss them, did you? Never again! There’s nothing sweeter than a great scrap quilt, and the immense satisfaction you feel when you have “used it all up”.
In this class we will explore some of the creative and fun ways to use those teeny or skinny scraps and leftovers. We will talk about design, storage, and leaders, and then we will explore at least four methods of quick and easy piecing. You will be surprised at how fast you can get some interesting results!
All Levels
Required Class Kit, $25 payable to the instructor in class (cash or Venmo only), includes 100+ die cut 1.5” squares, a dozen die cut strips, 4 of 4.5” squares, a cut of Ruby Star squares fabric, and foundation materials.
Students to Provide
Bring your sewing machine, basic sewing supplies including a seam ripper (for a special purpose), neutral thread (top and bobbin), small cutting mat, rotary cutter and ruler of at least 6 x 12”. Also, bring a fabric glue stick.
You can use kit supplies or bring a variety (10? 50? 100?) of die cut 1.5” squares and 10 or more die cut strips of 1.5” x 12” long to mix into your kit fabrics. Remember, 1.5” scrappy is the game and more is always more!
The kit will contain 100+ die cut 1.5” squares, a dozen die cut strips, 4 of 4.5” squares, a cut of Ruby Star squares fabric, and foundation materials. Kit fee $25, payable in class, cash or Venmo only.
Additional squares and strips will be available for purchase, or you may want to swap with your classmates to add greater variety. I highly recommend you use “the good stuff”! You will work on - but maybe not to completion - multiple stitching methods, and each small project could later be used for small items like a mug rug, a small pouch, or even as the start of your first quilt of thousands of 1” squares.
Available to purchase in class: $10 - 100 squares of 1.5" fabrics, $5.00 - 20 strips of 1.5" x 12" fabrics, $7.00 - Foundation gridded fusible by the yard.
