06FAD – Bargello With a Twist – Janice Lippincott I have continued to explore Bargello Quilts since my first wall hanging made in 1990. Since I found it time consuming to match all the seams on a traditional bargello, I designed this Bargello With a Twist and the intersections are each a “half step” up or down, thus eliminating the need to match seams. It is so much faster to make! Bargello is based on a needlepoint pattern from the Bargello Palace in Florence, Italy and from the 16th Century. Strips are sewn together and cut apart in various widths to create the movement. It’s all straight line sewing! Supply List: • Sewing Machine in good working order with a quarter inch foot • Basic Sewing Supplies • Fabrics ranging from light to dark; two or three color combinations will work • 1/4 yard of 11 fabrics • 1/3 yard of the 12th fabric • 1/4 to 3/4 yard of border fabrics (On some I have three borders ranging in different widths) • Binding fabric to match one of the fabrics – (Border and Binding fabrics can be chosen later. We certainly won’t get that far in one day. • Neutral thread to blend with all your fabrics, flannel for a design wall • Highlighter Pen • Box (Pizza or Beer Carton box works great) Quilt Nebraska 2020/2021 P a g e | 9

07FAD – English Paper Piecing (EPP) – Judy Williams – Kit Fee: $15.00 Key to perfect is getting all points to match up – not an easy feat! Set yourself up for success with rediscovered technique of English Paper Piecing. Class focuses on different methods to complete steps of EPP. We will practice different techniques to “baste” fabric and paper together letting you decide your method of preference. We will work with different sizes and shapes using both “pre-cut” purchased papers and “cut your own” papers. Class includes more advanced techniques of making your own templates and working with “fussy cut” fabrics. Class concentrates on the process rather than the product. Project/Kit 1 is constructing a simple hexagon “flower”, comes in two color ways (student choice), and includes directions and fabric to complete “flower” as rug mug or pin cushion. Project/Kit 2 comes in two different choices of fabrics with larger size papers in two different shapes. Supply List: • Pair of small paper cutting scissors, and pair of small fabric cutting scissors • Pencil, Ink pen (black or blue ink), Sharpie Ultra Fine Point permanent marker (any colors you have, bring with you – DO NOT BUY!) • Straight pins OR applique pins • 6 inch sewing ruler that has quarter inch line • Aurifil thread – white, cream, and black (if have, bring with you – DO NOT BUY!) • Sharp needles OR straw needles OR milliners needles OR applique needles (bring sizes you have – DO NOT BUY!) • Small trash container for fabric scraps (zip-lock bag works great) • Fabric glue pen OR school glue stick (if have, bring with you – DO NOT BUY!) • Thimble if you use one, Needle threader if you use one Kit Fee Includes: Printed EPP handouts, all fabric/kits, tools to “baste” fabric and paper together, precision cut papers (purchased), different materials used for making paper pieces, tools used for making your own paper shapes, mylar plastic for making templates to “fussy cut” fabrics, needles, and threads I prefer using to whip stitch EPP pieces together. Do NOT buy any supplies. I will bring extras of what I have and am sure others will too. We will share as needed. I find those who are comfortable with hand sewing feel more comfortable using their own “tools”.

08FAD – It’s a Mystery of Red White Blue and YOU – Tammie Will This is another MYSTERY – Red, White, Blue and YOU. We are making a small lap sized quilt (approximately 45 in X 54 in) using just 3 colors of fabric, Red, White & Blue. Class will be taught using full yardage of just 3 colors – instructions are not written for scrappy. You get to pick which color is the dominate. You should be able to use 1 yard of each color – just be careful on how your fabric was cut – one color requires 35 inches so you may want a bit extra for straightening or mis-cuts.

11FAD – A Boot Box Full of Scraps or Bits and Strips – Jan Sears Can’t throw those scraps away? Need ideas for using them? The class is relaxing and creative at the same time. It is just fun!

13FAM – Barn Quilt Lecture – Rose Mapel Barn quilts are sweeping the nation. They are popping up in town and in the countryside all over. Barn quilts come in all shapes and sizes and most often are fashioned like a single quilt block. Many of the people that take my barn quilt classes are quilters. I find they want to have an outward exterior symbol of their passion. What is exciting is many are not quilters; I like to think that possibly doing a barn quilt may entice someone to investigate the world of quilting a bit deeper and try it for themselves.

It was twenty years later I discovered quilting and it fit my life like a glove, using all my precious skills to solve puzzles, create works of art and provide therapy for my soul (plus it doesn’t have to fit). I like graphic lines and shapes over realism, but color is my main source of creativity. The colors create a mood and inspire me to design.
