This weekend in Conway, AR

Learn to stitch eye catching Lollie Wheels quilt blocks with Jen Kingwell’s Mixed Bag of Lollies fabrics. Under the guidance of instructor Debbie Landers, you will use careful cutting and thoughtful strip placement to create a refined pinwheel look while keeping the back of each block flat and tidy. The method uses half square triangles made from Lollies strips so the blocks come together quickly. Each finished block measures 8 inches, and the pattern is provided with the class. Designed for beginners, this session emphasizes accurate cutting and piecing, precise results from strategic strip placement, efficient half square triangle construction, and techniques that reduce seam bulk for smoother blocks. The class fee is $40, and enrollment is capped at 12 students. Please bring a sewing machine in good working order, thread, bobbins, scissors, a 6 by 24 inch quilting ruler, a 5 by 10 inch quilting ruler, a rotary cutter, and a seam ripper. Fabric needs include three quarters of a yard each of seven different Lollie fabrics, three quarters of a yard for binding, and four yards for backing. Lollie fabrics are available at The Quilt Shop at Linda Marie’s. A wool ironing mat and an iron are recommended.

Players can compete in the Pokemon Standard format. The entry fee is 6 dollars, and prize credit will be determined by how many people attend.
