Ladies of Gee's Bend Workshops
The Stitchin' Post is very excited to announce a new series of workshops being offered by the Ladies of Gee's Bend. They will be visiting Sisters July 8 through 11 and have offered to teach five two hour workshops. All five workshops will be the same. In the workshop you will meet all seven of the ladies and Matt Arnett will give a short talk on Gee's Bend. In class you will make a block out of discarded clothing scraps that you bring with you following in the style of the Gee's Bend quilts.
Bring your scraps, sewing machine, a good pair of scissors for cutting,
pins, and thread. Each workshop group is limited to 15 students so you can work first-hand with the ladies.
Please note three of the workshops are being offered at the same time as Quilter's Affair classes so we recommend that QA participants who want to take a workshop choose the 3:30 - 5:30 sessions. Workshops will be filled on a first come first serve basis and must be paid in full at the time of registration. The workshop fee includes a $10.00 nonrefundable deposit. (No discounts apply.)
Thank you so much to the ladies of Gee's Bend for all of their wonderful insights and just a great visit!
We look forward to seeing you again in Sisters.
