Trim The Tree Quilt Class with Terry Stafford

The Trim The Tree Quilt Class with Terry Stafford will be held on November 15, 2019. Instruction will begin at 10:00 AM and end at 4:00 PM for a total of 6 hours. The Retreat Center will remain open until 8 PM for those who want to continue sewing after instruction ends. The class requires a minimum of 6 students to be held and will be capped at a maximum of 10 students. Feel free to bring snacks or lunch for the day. There are also several restaurants in the area.

Students will have a choice of two patterns to use, the “Tall Trim The Tree” or “A Little Bit Shorter Tall Tree”. Both are designed by Cindi Edgerton and are Tissue Paper Foundation Patterns. They are both great Paper Piecing projects!

The Tall Trim The Tree project will create a tree that could be just the right size for smaller homes with a finished size of 26.75″ X 76.75″. You can roll it up for easy storage. To decorate the tree, hang ornaments on 25 buttons that embellish the quilt.

The A Little Bit Shorter Tall Tree project will create a tree that is a smaller version of the Tall Trim The Tree and is perfect for smaller spaces. You could also display it in an office or child’s room. You can decorate the tree with buttons to hang a few of your favorite ornaments. The finished size is 17″ x 41″.

* Please note: For both projects, the pattern includes tissue paper foundations to make two tree quilts. The Ornaments for the trees are not included with the tree pattern but are available separately as Lynn’s Pins or Holiday Mini-Quilt Ornaments..
