Teaching LIVE in Avon Park, FL: Part Two

These ladies got a lot done in our 3-hour “Love It and Leaf It” Class!

Carol chose a lovely medium-scale printed fabric for the background. It was the first time I’d had a student make such a choice, but it worked beautifully. (Can you tell she’s happy with it?)

Janet chose mostly solid fabrics, which worked well. As long as there’s contrast with the vein fabric any leaf fabrics work.

Don’t you love Jackie’s pink leaf against her dark blue background?

It sure was fun to be interacting with my students in-person again!

Gee, I hope some of these ladies will send me photos of their finished and framed pieces!

P.S. This class is a really good choice for a Zoom class, since you don’t have to spend a lot of time in front of your computer.

Teaching LIVE in Avon Park, FL: Part One

Well, after two years, I finally got to teach an in-person class recently. I taught the class “Love It and Leaf It” to a welcoming group in Avon Park, FL. Of course, we had fun!

Rose did a great job on her quilt. Don’t the veins make it pop?

Lorri had a beautiful piece of hand-dyed (looking) fabric which she was able to use for all the different colors. Very creative and effective.

Kay chose a dark blue for her background, which was equally effective.

And Janice chose green. Don’t all these varieties look awesome?

This was only a three hour class so, you can see they got A LOT done. Most of them had their pieces quilted. All that was left to do was to face them and pop them in a frame.

I’ll show you the remaining photos in the next post.
