| Description:
In this workshop the designing of a small fused project will begin. We will work from one of five of Lenore's patterns that are shown on the Patterns page of her website: Yellow Poppies, Yellow Cone Flower, Magenta Cone Flower, One Poppy, and Red Poppies since these are the least complex patterns for beginners. It will be outlined on freezer paper and then transferred to a background fabric on which the design will be fused. No sewing will be done during the workshop, only the designing and fusing. You will learn how to make your own patterns from your own photos too! Lenore will also demonstrate how to add fabric painting to your design to add detail and depth; students will do painting on their own designs in the two day workshops. $15 supplies fee required includes patterns by Lenore plus other supplies she provides. The kit does not include fabric. Select your fabric before class for the pattern you choose to bring to class! (Lenore says she does not use any solid fabrics--always some texture/ movement. Batiks are nice, but she does not limit herself to batiks.)

| Description:
This graphic design has so many possibilities, it is hard to know where to start, but we do begin at the beginning with one classic Pineapple block, pieced on a vellum foundation. The pattern has been computer-generated, and is accurate and easy to see and sew on. Sewing with strips, upside-down or on the back of the pattern, may be new to some, so everyone makes one practice block. Then on to whatever design you fancy. The choices are two kinds of off-center patterns, a Flying Geese pattern, or playing with the classic block to create new designs. Pineapples are so versatile, there is always one more just waiting to be made, and its my hope that you will become enamored of them too.

| Description:
String piecing is simple and fun to learn. We will work with strips from 1 2. We will talk about strings and will make a couple of basic string blocks. Then we will advance to the pieced 8 pointed star. An 8 pointed start can be tricky, but you will learn a new way to construct this well-loved star pattern, giving you perfect points and centers.
