WE HAVE A WINNER!

Congratulations to Katie Darlington... 2019 Row by Row Winner for Cortez Quilt Company and More! Katie traveled throughout Southwest Colorado and in New Mexico to find her "Taste The Experience" rows. Even more exciting - this is what Katie considers her first "official and completed" quilt. Katie received 25 fat quarters and a gift certificate for her hard work!

Foot Fetish … Mastering BERNINA Presser Feet
Saturday, August 10, 2019 
9:00-5:00
$25.00
Skill Level: All

This class is a little play on words between an unusual fascination and an inanimate object thought to have magical powers. We find it fitting because we have an unusual fascination with the amazing capabilities presented by the selection of BERNINA presser feet. Too, we know that many of you have looked at projects that used simple presser foot techniques and thought that it was magic. Well, now we are offering our Foot Fetish class so that you can take your unusual fascination with amazing quilting ideas, and turn it into very practical daily techniques that will make others think that you can do magic with fabric! Attendees will get to sample a wide variety of feet and experience first hand all the amazing things that can be created. Call to sign up now, as space is limited!

BERNINA’s practical Magnifying Lens set sharpens your view of the work area. The set contains three magnifying lenses of different strengths, enabling you to choose the most suitable magnification for the project at hand.

The lenses provide an optimum view when threading, and magnify the stitching area. This is especially helpful for precision sewing in tricky places. The magnifying lenses also make lighter work of embroidery, sparing your eyes and reducing fatigue. The Magnifying Lens set also features a bracket for simple mounting to the sewing machine.
