EasyPiecing? Sign me up! Three EasyPiecing Grid Classes to Choose From.





It's called the EasyPiecing Grid for a good reason. Often we stare at quilts made from tiny squares and wonder how long it took - what pains were suffered - in the piecing of such a masterpiece. With jaw gaping we utter, "I could never..." Oh, but you could! Carmen Geddes of TenSisters Handicraft has developed a method that makes piecing those tiny square scraps a breeze! It's called the EasyPiecing Grid. A grid is printed on a very lightweight, iron-on interfacing available in three sizes (1", 1.5" and 2" squares). It will help you create panels of squares that are much like putting together large puzzle pieces. It's super fun! You'll be surprised at how versatile and forgiving this method is especially considering your finished quilt top will have perfectly nesting corners! Would you believe it if I told you it's done without pinning? The end result is a sturdy yet soft quilt top that lays nice and flat. Check out Carmen's quick demo to see how it happens. It truly is easy piecing! We have the EasyPiecing Grid available by the yard or in pre-cut packages as well as four fabulous books full of patterns that use this slick technique. Better yet, we have three different classes on our schedule taught by Heather Dunn where you'll have step by step guidance! 

When Heather walked through our door smiling over the prettiest pile of patchwork, I immediately fell in love with her Piccadilly Squares quilt. The colors, the classic design and above all, the quality is quilt perfection. You can learn to make this traditional, on-point quilt in a non-traditional way here at our School House with Heather Dunn in a two-part class, March 12 and 19, 1100 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. The $50 class fee includes both class sessions. That's a total of 8 hours of instruction and sewing time with an EasyPiecing pro!  You can register now online or in-store. All supplies are available here at the shop. Did you know you can receive 20% off all your regular price class supplies here at the shop? Plus, you get 20% off purchases while in class! 

Before I show you more of Heather's beautiful quilts, I'd like to introduce you to one of the sweetest quilters you'll ever meet. Heather Dunn has been sewing and quilting for many years. She loves fabric and especially enjoys designing her own quilts. Teaching is definitely a passion of hers and teaching quilting is at the top of her list! She is a mother of five incredible young adults and a new son-in-law. She currently lives in Eagle Mountain with her husband. Heather works closely with Carmen Geddes of TenSisters Handicraft, creator of the EasyPiecing Grid. Making quilt samples you'll find within the pages of TenSister's latest pattern book, Heather has become an expert with the EasyPiecing Grid technique. We are honored to have three of her lovely heirloom quilts on display at the shop. Come see her work in person and sign up to learn this clever technique from this talented quilt maker! 


You can make this 80" x 88" traditional Boston Commons quilt in a fun, fast, and accurate way! You'll use EasyPiecing Border Panels to create your on-point heirloom. With this design, you can choose each row to be a different fabric, or repeat your favorites! Below, Carmen and Heather are holding another example of the Boston Commons quilt using different fabrics pieced by Carmen Geddes. As you can see, this is a pattern you will have fun with as you create your own unique layout! Heather's excited to share with you just how easy it is to piece these 2" finished squares in at our School House, April 9 and 16, 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. You can register here or in-store.

Coming right up, February 6 and 13, 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m., This Vintage Charm quilt (below) is an excellent project for beginners using the EasyPiecing Grid. Learn how to turn your lovely scraps into a beautiful 52" x 52" quilt top with Heather. Why not sign up for all three EasyPiecing classes and perfect your piecing skills while busting through your scrap stash! You'll be thrilled with your perfectly pieced quilt tops and be excited to look for more ways to use the grid method.
