Salem Quilt Guild’s Quilt Campout ** {53” × 75”}
Mary Deeney
The Salem Quilt Guild witches are back! These fun-loving quilting witches are getting together with their vintage trailers and having Quilting campouts. One block at a time is an easy approach to creating a large quilt. Recapture the joy of creating with color by joining us each month of this 13 month program to explore how to embellish your blocks with simple embroidery stitches and colored pencils. Colored pencils open up a whole new world of creating texture on fabric by blending and smoothing the colors using different tools and techniques. We will begin each class with fun and easy coloring exercises to tint, color, and shade your fabric. Then we will trace and tint that month’s block. Homework will consist of completing the embroidery for that month’s block. At the end of the program you will have completed twelve quilt blocks and have them ready to put together into a beautiful, and unique, quilt to display for Halloween or throughout the year.
The first block in the program is shown here, just after Kathy finished tracing the design from the pattern and tinting it with colored pencils.
