This is a refresher class on the Hunter Star ruler. If you have previously taken this class but need to revisit how to make these blocks, then this is the class for you. We will cover the basics of how to use the Hunter’s Star Ruler by Deb Tucker and how to complete these blocks on the project that you started in class. Bring the blocks that you have completed and the fabric you intend to use for the rest of your quilt. We will put you on your way to completing this project so you don’t have another UFO just sitting there waiting to be finished!

This is a 2 part class for the Hunter Star. The first class will cover using the Deb Tucker’s Rapid Fire Hunter Star ruler while working on the blocks for the “SueNami” quilt which is a new pattern setting for the Hunter Star from Deb Tucker and her sister Sue. In the second class we will work on the pattern layout and will cover the finishing touches on this quilt, concentrating on the flying geese and half square triangle borders using Deb Tucker’s Wing Clipper and Deb’s Tucker Trimmer ruler.
Join us for an evening of fun as we start to put together this sure-to-be “heirloom quilt.” The best part about this paper-piecing technique is that you are sewing on top of the paper. Bring an assortment of light & dark 4-5” squares. There will be a demo on making the ½” wide vine and fusible & freezer-paper applique. Bring a friend or two to share in this fun-filled evening. A meal will be provided but bring your own favorite snacks and drinks!
This could be your introduction to art quilting, or just a quick-and-fun technique to cook up some artful gifts! No drawing or painting skills required. Create one-of-a-kind fiber art postcards with a creative form of free-motion quilting. Develop your own style as your creative juices begin to flow with very little in the way of supplies. You must be able to free-motion quilt to take this class.
