PAM DOFFEK — SERENDIPITY BLOCK 

July 13:
$30.00
Woodville Community Center
Bring only scraps and learn how to make this wonky Log Cabin Block.

“Surrender to the freedom of Serendipity of using scraps (yours or mine) to make blocks any size and then turn them into quilts (placemats, table runners, etc.) any size.  This technique I developed 10 years ago as part of my “Many Ways to Crazy” series is liberating, relaxing  and creative building at the same time.  No precutting needed, no fabric coordinating (but I’ll explain the steps if you want), no ¼” seam requirement;  just find your groove and learn a great technique to use all  scraps and strips from 2” square to full yardage (although ½ yd. or less is perfect).
Use my scraps or yours.  Bring a scissors and a machine with a regular presser foot.  You can easily finish a neo-natal size top or bigger in class.  Class samples are only examples of 2 possible ways to put the blocks together.  We will discuss other options and block/layouts for sizes from neonatal to King are included in the handouts.   Full supply list with paid enrollment.
If you already like the serendipity of scrap projects, or you just want to loosen up a bit, this is the class for you.”  Pam Doffek
