Join Jenny for the 2019 monthly Lap Quilting Club at the MAC Center in Salisbury, MD.

Club meetings for 2019 will be January 31st, Feb 28th, Mar 28th, April 25th, May 30th, June 27th, July 25th, Aug 29th, September 26th, October 31st, November 21st ( 3rd Thursday because of Thanksgiving) and December 19th (3rd Thursday because of Christmas). Time for club is 2:00 pm. The clubs are scheduled every 4th Thursday of the month and the sessions are 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Each session will introduce techniques to help you piece a traditional sampler Lap Quilt. The quilt size you decide to make is up to you. I will be completing a quilt along with the sessions. After we get started I will hold a “Show and Tell” at the beginning of each meeting so you can share your sewn blocks and fabric choices with the group.

Our first Club session will be held on January 31st, 2019. I will introduce supplies and fabrics you will need to gather to complete the quilt you would like to make. We will talk about templates and I will demonstrate a few 4 patch blocks. I suggest you purchase Lap Quilting by Georgia Bonesteel. The book contains over 70 patchwork blocks with template patterns and will be your guide for making a Lap Quilt. Amazon.com has the book at a very reasonable price.

You will need to register for each club session in advance and can register in club for the next session or use this on-line link to enroll. Please enroll in advance so MAC sets up enough seating and tables for you to attend.

All club meetings will be power point demonstration. I will also introduce “Electric Quilt” software to show you how you can design your quilt and blocks using the computer.

All club fees will only be applied to the upcoming club. Enrollment date will show the session you are choosing. No carry over fees please.The MAC center is at 909 Progress Circle, Salisbury, MD 21804. Club will be in the Bradford room near the gym.
