March 7 @ 9:00 am ~ Big Block Quilt
This quilt is all about the fabric! the large squares are approximately 12-1/2" square, so it is fine to use fat quarters. If you have a large print that is quite varied, you may be able to cut more than one block from it.
March 13 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm ~ Kaleidescope Krazy
Kaleidoscope Krazy is a technique class. We will use Marti Michell's large Kalaido Ruler and I will show several ways to use the ruler. Students will complete several blocks and choose a layout option for their own personal quilt. It is also very helpful to have a
6 1/2" x 18" ruler.
*Kaleido-ruler is required for class.
Mar 14 @ 8:00 am and 9:00 am ~ Saturday Sampler. This is our third month of the year, so it isn't too late to join. We have some beautiful blocks for you to choose from, or just sew them all! If you need to take a look at last months blocks, go to www.valleyfabricshop.blogspot.com.

Seam Allowance!
In the quilting world a proper seam allowance can make or break your quilt. Most patterns call for a 1/4" seam allowance. Why do you need to make sure your seam allowance is consistent? Your pieces won't fit together and then you will need to pick!
Now there will be times you have to UNSEW! Watch this great video on how to really quick, unpick!

We have these amazingly sharp seam rippers in stock and what is also wonderful about them is the cap is spongy and will remove the extra threads.
