Technique Sharing Workshops (TSW for short) are free, and currently take place during our Zoom meetings. These workshops, led or taught by our own members on a volunteer basis, give our members a chance to share, learn and practice various special techniques related to quilting.
The Home Page Calendar includes the 2021 Technique Sharing Workshops.
Previous TSW handouts are available on the Blog under the "TSW" , "Patterns" and "Mystery Quilt" categories.
If you have a technique you'd like to share, please let me know! .
Many Thanks!

Mystery Quilt 2021
with Carole Behlke
Jan 1st, 2021 to Oct 1st, 2021
In January we will begin our 9-patch mystery quilt. The blocks will be made over the next nine months and then we will schedule a workshop/or zoom session to reveal the quilt and assemble our blocks. The quilt is made up of eleven different 9-patch layouts that are 9” finished. Most of the blocks are made more than once, but all blocks are a 9-patch. The thing that makes them different is the color blocks and background placement. The quilt will end up being about 78” x 102”.
Each month there will be one or two block patterns released and the number of each you will need to make. This is a great scrappy quilt! You will also need a background fabric – a neutral that reads as a solid such as white, cream, taupe, or black would work best. You will need about 5-1/4 yards of background fabric, or 6 yards to include binding. If you would like to get a head start, you can start cutting your 3-1/2” squares for the blocks. You will need 396 background squares cut 3-1/2”. The additional background fabric will be used in the quilt assembly. And you will need 351 3-1/2” squares from your scraps, or your choice of colored fabrics. This is a fun quilt to make and an easy assembly at the end. I hope you join the fun.
Feel free to call me if you have any questions.

The envelope will be usable for "love" notes to be inserted if desired. My picture is of the block unfinished. Great for a small project for Valentine's day
