STRIPPER’S CLUB/STASHBUSTER I TEACHER: DIANE FAMA
BEGINNER
Ever wonder what to do with those 2.5 inch strips you see sold as 'jellyrolls' or in Bali pops packaging?
Have a bunch of leftover strips and don't know what to do with them? Do you have a group of fun
conversation themed fabrics in your stash that you'd love to use up? Trying to reduce your stash so you
can buy more of the new fabrics out there? Then this is the class for you. Join us on Saturday, May 1st to
learn how to "strip' like a pro and come see how to use them to create a fast and cool new quilt top.
Teacher Diane Fama will show you how to cut and arrange your 2.5 inch strips into a easy to piece top that
will leave you room in your studio. We'll explore accurate piecing and pressing techniques, color
placement, adding borders, discuss binding techniques and even show you how you can get a second
smaller quilt out of the leftovers from your bigger quilt project.
