\"Cake<\/a>Cake Therapy and Beyond<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are missing the interaction with you so we are going to try Cake Therapy by Zoom and then posted it to Facebook later in the morning for those you can’t join us live. Email us at info@tomssewing.com to join our LIVE Facebook class.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t already attended Cake Therapy, then it\u2019s time you did and find out what you are missing. If you are a beginner quilter or advanced quilter you will have fun learning and sharing different techniques. There are NO FEES for these sessions, but great deals if you want to take things home. Usually we have cake so you will all have to sit with your piece of cake while you watch.<\/p>\n

Take part on our “show and tell” by sending pictures of what you made to dblori@telus.net<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Sampler Quilt: Drunkards Path. ( Sewing Curves)<\/h3>\n

This is one of the patterns that I absolutely love doing! There are an amazing amount of variations using one basic block. If you\u2019ve been avoiding quilt patterns that use curved piecing techniques then this is the class for you. You can take the class as part of the sampler quilt series or just take one class and make the amazing quilt pattern below.<\/p>\n

Each Monday, we will feature a different traditional quilt block. Throughout this series we will explore blocks which feature curved piecing, appliqu\u00e9, paper piecing, use of templates, folded fabric, half square triangles and flying geese, or a combination of techniques . This is an opportunity to learn a variety of traditional quilting techniques, which you may have not previously explored.<\/p>\n

Take one class in a technique, repeat the block and make a quilt or take the entire series of nine classes and complete a sampler quilt. The final class in this series will focus on the use of filler blocks to complete your quilt.<\/p>\n

Note: Not all blocks shown in the sample will be taught in class.<\/p>\n
