New Classes to begin

Starting in September, we have some great classes we are going to offer.  We have 2 beginning quilt classes.  There will be a fee for these 2 classes.  You will learn basics on putting together a quilt from start to finish.  These classes are 3 3 hour sessions.

We are also going to be offering FREE classes on using some specialty rulers that we have on hand to sell.  There will be a pattern also available for purchase to complete  projects using the different rulers.  The classes  will last between 1/2 hour to 3/4 hour depending on questions. 
Classes for 2 hour time frames will also be available to get you started on one of the projects.  A fee will apply.

Plus, we have a great idea for some Christmas ornaments to make painting your own fabric.  The technique to show you how will be a FREE 1 hour long session.  The supplies you need to make your own will be available for purchase.
Classes for this project will be 2 3 hour sessions and a fee will apply.

We also plan on starting two block of the month quilt projects.  One will be for charity.  The finished projects will be donated for a specific charity.

Ever wanted to make a round quilt, we have just the author who does a great job.  We will be making the New York Beauty pattern using Cheryl Phillips book.  Book will be available for purchase from us.

Want to put together an applique project.  We have another great artist, Toni Whitney, whose patterns will be available from us.  You will be able to choose which pattern you want to do and Tony will give instructions on this great technique.  He used it in his "Never forget" quilt with the big eagle at the bottom of the quilt.

These are some of classes coming this fall.  If interested in any of the above classes, please send us an email to catsquilting@yahoo.com for us to schedule your time.  As I get the projects ready to go, the pictures will start to show up.  Keep checking!  In some cases, it will be an actual quilt that we have completed or a picture of the book/pattern that will be used for the class or demonstration.

Quilt Market - What an experience!

Tony and I attended Spring Quilt Market here in Salt Lake City. We had such an experience getting to meet the authors of books, patterns and fabric designers. We came away with a whole bunch of class ideas for kids and adults.
I've gotten together the kids class descriptions and will be posting once I figure out how. Then, I'll be posting the class schedule shortly thereafter. We will be starting classes this month, June. The adult class list will be arriving shortly.
Also, as an added incentive to learn some basic, new and fun techniques, I'm going to offer the Summer Class Pass at $50.00. This entitles you to take up to 5 (two) hour sessions during the months of June, July, and August. These passes are numbered and assigned to a specific person. They are not transferrable, non-refundable and expire on 9/18/2011. BUT, if you use the pass during the summer months, you can save up to 50% in the cost of classes. An Example: My Beginning Quilt class is 3 (2) hour sessions. You already save $10.00 by getting the Summer Pass to take the class. This Summer Pass does not include any class kits, additional supplies, fabrics needed. If interested in purchasing a Summer Class Pass, send me an email so I can get your information and process your Summer Class Pass. I should also be connected to Pay Pal so you can pay thru Pay Pal also.
