Blazing Star with Jennie Rayment

Fun fabric fiddling this weekend as we demystify and simplify this simply stunning block – The Blazing Star (or Lone Star) – which can be used as a medallion centre for a larger quilt, or just on it’s own. Get your rotary cutters and machines ready – it’s great for both beginners and more experienced quilters.

Stashbusting with Paula Doyle

The Stash Buster Doctor is in! Bring me your unused yardage,  forgotten jelly rolls, unwanted fat quarters, layer cakes and nickel packs, and yes, even your too-good-to-throw-away scraps, and I will show you how to transform them into beautiful and practical quilts ! We will piece Jazzy Fence Rails, Greek Key or Split Court Log Cabins, Split Nine Patches, and Big Triangles. We will frugally use ripped jeans and odd bits of wadding to make Charmed Circles, Go crazy with your Itsy Bits and Wonky Strips , and even do a T-Shirt Kantha Throw! You be working on one or more of these at the retreat, and you will receive patterns for all these quilts so you can continue de-stashing long after the retreat ! Simply choose the project or projects you wish to work on at the retreat, and I will send you a detailed list of the requirements!
