Ok, so you've got the casting on and the basic knitting spiel

a small group setting I will show you how to do things like vertical
double decrease, yarn over, binding off, and even stripes! Feel free to
bring your issues and questions and I will be happy to answer them!
Bring yarn/needles or your current project. If not, Karenina will have
some extras for the purpose of the workshop.

The
purpose of this
class is to introduce class members to the world of paper piece
quilting. Fabrics are stitched to each other and the fabric in a step
by step approach. Class members will have a finished quilt block by the
end of the class. More experienced stitchers will have a completed top.
12 inches square.
Supplies
- 5 - 7 -one-quarter yard
pieces of fabric Fat quarters will work. They should go well together
and have a range of lights darks and mediums, solid to medium scale
prints; large prints will be lost in the cutting. Warm and cool colors.
- Warms: red, yellow, pink and orange, some purples
if they have more red than blue
- Cools: blue green, black, purples that tend towards
blue
- An easy way to choose
fabrics is to find one multi-colored print you like with both warm and
cool colors, then draw your other fabrics from those colors.
4 copies
of the pattern
copied onto paper piecing fabric, if you have it or on regular copy
paper. I don’t recommend the wash away. I have problems with the ink
leaving marks on light fabrics with my HP copier. You can get the
copies made at any copy center if you don’t have your own copier.
Sewing

be available - if you have a small portable, please bring it. A
straight stitch machine is all that’s needed.
