I'm so excited to share some big news with you this morning: I'm teaching at Sewing Summit 2012! I've been sitting on this secret for months now, so it feels good to finally spill it. Elizabeth and I are going to be team-teaching a class on foundation paper-piecing!
A foundation-pieced block I made for the 4x5 Modern Quilt Bee
If you've been reading this blog for a while, you know how much I love foundation piecing. It opens up so many design possibilities that can't be achieved any other way, and it helps you really nail the accuracy on even the most elaborate blocks. I know a lot of people are intimidated by foundation piecing, and it is a very different approach if you're used to the standard methods. But there's nothing like a real-time hands-on class when it comes to learning a skill like this, so I'm really looking forward to this classroom opportunity and working with each and every one of you that signs up!
Unfortunately, Sewing Summit 2012 registration is already sold out! But there is a wait list, in case more tickets become available later. Click here for more information.
Yea! Congratulations! I soooo wish I was going! You guys are going to have a great time and be great teachers!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait Lee! So glad that you and Elizabeth will be teaching!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Lee!! How exciting - I LOVE foundation piecing, my VERY, VERY fav!!! And your block is fabulous!!! Kris
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! I completely missed the registration for the Summit. Where have I been?! ARGH...
ReplyDeleteI also love foundation piecing and would have enjoyed this class very much. Enjoy your time there. I know it will be a blast. I thoroughly enjoyed last year's.
Yippee Skippee!! I am so excited for you and Elizabeth. What fun. You know I will be signing up for the class!!

ReplyDeleteAh man, now I know how I missed it. I was too busy bouncing around Disneyworld with the kids. It opened after I left for the park and closed before I returned.
ReplyDeleteCan't say I'd have traded the day for it, though so I put myself on the waitlist and hope they release more tickets. If not, those going will have so much fun.
