Quilters Make Beautiful Big Star Quilts

Posted in Quilting, Sewing, The Studio/Classes, tagged , , , , , on October 30, 2022| Leave a Comment »

It is quite an accomplishment to make a quilt. But to make a quilt in a day and a half….well that is something else altogether! And that is just what these 6 quilters did this weekend. We started on Friday evening and finished yesterday around 6:30. Aren’t they just amazing!!!! We used the Quilt As You Go method so these quilts are all done. Everyone did a great job with their color and fabric choices. I wish you could see them in person as they are so much prettier than in the photos. Nice work Debbie, Julie, Pat, Terry, Troy and Sherry. You ROCK!!!!!! We have another class coming up next weekend. Can’t wait to see what they do. And if you have ever wanted to learn to sew we have a class this Thursday on making a Table Runner that is beginner friendly….plus it only takes about an hour. Why not come learn to sew so there may be a quilt in your future. Click here to register for the Table Runner Class or to learn more.

Capon Favorites

My two favorite people to paint with at Capon Springs Art Retreat are Peggy and Chris…the mother-son duo who attend all the retreats and create some terrific art. I look forward to seeing them each time we go to Capon. Peggy does fun paintings each time and Chris always does something different. This time he created some gorgeous landscapes on multiple canvases. I love how their work turns out! Great work guys. Looking forward to seeing and painting with you both again soon.
