Whole Cloth Marking Class and Painting Tips

This award winning quilter will bring over 200 stencils and teach you how to design your own original whole cloth quilt.   You’ll be learning about the fundamentals of design and what backfills will go best in each contained quilting area. She’ll have a sample quilt that you can actually practice the newest craze of fabric painting on a whole cloth quilt. Bring white or off white quality fabrics at least 65” by 65” or slightly bigger.  Bring 3 blue water-soluble markers (Mark-B-Gone is best), 1 blue pen Clover erasers, 12 by 6 inch ruler, 24 by 6 inch ruler, and a large square ruler if you can pack and bring.   In this class we will only design the quilt so you will not need a sewing machine.   You’ll also learn about blocking, and getting your quilt ready to show, and some binding tips.  This quilt is for hand sewers, domestic machine quilters, or Longarm quilters. Judy’s quilts have won many National quilt awards and she can take you to the next level.  If you email Judy she will bring your fabric and, or markers and erasers.  You’ll still need to bring your rulers.  jwquilts@yahoo.com
