    The hotel rooms have a refrigerator, microwave & coffee maker.  The hotel does not allow us to bring food into public areas, but we will have a section of the ballroom set up for eating food that we bring from home or “carry out” through the back door. 

    Our work area is a spacious ballroom with three entrances from the parking lot and natural light from two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows.  You will be able to reserve a workspace for yourself and a friend when the floor plan is finalized in January.   Workspace is selected in order of registration.

    Carly Mul - Scissors Collage - Workshop - In-person - 10am to 2pm

    Scissors collage.jpg

    Learn how to make Carly’s Scissors Collage. The 20” x 20” collage is perfect for a wall hanging or the centerpiece of a quilt.  See the following link for details and supplies Scissors Class v2024 details - supplies.pdf

    This class is an exploration of color, texture, and composition through fabric collage. The primary goal is to create smooth, flowing lines with color, seamlessly integrating various fabric pieces so that they appear as one cohesive fabric. The process is both free and intuitive, allowing for creative expression, while requiring a keen eye for detail. Many students often comment that the class changes the way they see the world, helping them appreciate the subtle beauty in color, shape, and texture in new and exciting ways.

    This is an entry level class. Perfect for scrappy quilters, the collage uses up to 50 scraps, some as small as ½”.  The scissors collage will finish to 20 inches. 

    The registration fee is $35 paid at the time of registration via credit card.  There is a mandatory kit fee of $17.50 (for Steam a Seam 2 and Pattern Ease) that is paid to the instructor at the class. Cash, credit, or check are accepted for this fee.

    An optional fabric kit can be purchased for $28.00 if you want Carly to provide fabric for the project.  You must send an email to Mollie Weinert, weinertm@verizon.net, by 29 April saying that you want the kit and explaining what two colors you want to use.  The fabric kit fee will be paid to the instructor at the class.

    Parking is available in the main lot and on the street.  Please do not use the lower parking level as that is for the pre-school.
