Katie Ringo returns to Scrap and Sew to teach Melt & Blend!

Good morning everybody! We have been busy busy busy, but I have a quick update for you about classes that you DO NOT want to miss!

Katie Ringo taught Melt & Blend here at the store before, and we have filled the class EVERY SINGLE TIME!! The response has been so amazing that we decided to offer the class yet again! We would love to fill it up, so if you are interested, be sure to call ahead and reserve your spot - the seats might fill quickly.

For those of you who have already taken the Melt & Blend class, do not worry! Katie will also be teaching an Advanced Melt & Blend class for everybody who enjoyed the first class and would love to experiment more with the blending technique. See below for details and the store samples for both classes.

Beginner Melt and Blend

Pull out your old box of crayons and get ready to blend them together to make dazzling appliqué pieces for your art quilts. This is a fun and easy technique to master so you can paint your fabric appliqué shapes the exact color you want. Learn how to blend colors together, layer colors to create shading, add color to traced areas and enhance your “painted” pieces with colored pencils and Pigma Pens.

This event is especially for those who are looking for a great deal on a new Serger! Pfaff offers three different sergers and we WILL offer special pricing at the event! Class fee is $10 and we will be giving event participants 10% any purchases made in the store (excluding class fees, professional services, kits and previously discounted items) Give us a call to reserve your seat or if you have any questions - we would be happy to talk to you.
