Borders and Background Bonanza
(Intermediate - Student should have good command of machine)

Wish you knew what to put around all that applique to enhance the quilt? Stumped on how to make borders look good without taking hours and hours to complete them? Want to jazz up your quilting with some new ideas? If so, this class is for you. Don't miss this opportunity to learn a bevy of beautiful borders and backgrounds.
Paperless Pantos
(Beginner/Intermediate - Student should have good command of machine)
Class Description: Have you been focusing your quilting on the "back" side of the machine using paper patterns? Longing to get to the "front" side of the machine and take a more free form approach to your all over patterns? If so, this class is for you. In the Backgrounds and Borders class above, we touch on some of the techniques and patterns, now lets take them to a new level by using them on the whole quilt. Lots of easy designs you can use to free you from your laser pointer.
