Quilt: It's the Thought That Counts
"It's the Thought That Counts"

This class is designed after Susan’s quilt that was in the New England Quilt Museum, “It’s the Thought That Counts”. We all have those beautiful batik panels and don’t know how to transform them into a beautiful piece of quilted art. Using a batik panel of your choice you will make a one of a kind wall hanging. Large graph paper will be the template technique to put together your design.


Susan will aid you in abstract design and composition, offering several new piecing designed from traditional skills, and these techniques will enhance your art work. The paper patterns you draw in class will aid all levels in succeeding with this project.

Finish off with appliqué and have a free spirit to try something new and exciting!!!

Batik panels and fat quarters will be for sale in class, from $15.oo to $35.oo
