We're excited to announce the third class in our Modern Quilting series, Stitch-and-Flip 3 Ways! Join us in the Greenhouse on Sunday, November 3, from 2-5pm, as quilter and blogger Nicole Neblett of Mama Love Quilts teaches us to use the stitch-and-flip method to create modern blocks! Bring a willingness to "let go" and have fun, and practice each stitch-and-flip method as you work to complete quilt blocks that can be incorporated into larger projects or finished outside of class time as mini quilts. Students will leave this class with the confidence to use improvisational piecing techniques to design blocks and develop a unique quilting style! Registration opens today at 6pm, so head over to Eventbrite to reserve your spot today!

Greenhouse Event: October’s Open Studio + a quilting bee!
Registration opens today for October's Open Studio! Join us in the Spoonflower Greenhouse on Tuesday, October 22, from 6-9pm to work on your sewing project of choice or start something new with expert advice and instruction on hand. We've had so much fun since we launched this event in August, and, I must say, it has been so inspirational to see what our community has in the works with craft projects that range from quilts to coffee cozies– last month, we actually saw the "cat's pajamas"!
Clockwise from top: Anne's quilt, Rachel's comic book coffee cozy, and Lisa's "cat's pajama" bottoms!
As we head into colder weather, we have quilts on the brain, and starting at this month's Open Studio, we're going to initiate a social quilting bee for the holidays!
