ENGLISH PAPER PIECING (EPP) CLUB

Second Friday of the month at 10am in the classroom

Ready to explore the world of English Paper Piecing?  Or have you already caught the bug and want to learn more?  Then come join our English Paper Piecing (EPP) Club.  If you want to learn, Nancy Austin will help get you started and she also helps us research new patterns and design trends for today’s quilters.

From the classic Grandmother’s Garden blocks to today’s beautiful millefiori fabric patterns, English paper piecing has appealed to quilters for several generations.  Perhaps because it is portable and relaxing or because of the popularity of today’s “slow quilting” movement, EPP is once again being embraced by quilters.  There is no charge for the meeting.

WOOL CLUB

Second Friday of the month at 12pm in the classroom

 And for our wool enthusiasts, our Wool Club meets at noon on the second Fridays of the month.  This is a fun group with no limit to their excitement and enjoyment of wool work!  Hand stitchers of all levels are welcomed.  There is no charge for the meeting.     

Marcellus MODERN Quilt Club

                                                                           Second  Sunday of the month at 1pm 

The Marcellus MODERN Quilt Club (MMQC) meets on the second Sunday of the month to explore the modern quilt movement.  Its 25 members inspire each other, always encouraging to “think out of the box”, and share new ideas and resources.  Guest speakers and workshop teachers teach new techniques like improv piecing, color placement and using contemporary fabrics to update
traditional blocks. 
Times and meeting locations change occasionally. Contact Cindy Wells at cwellsie49@gmail.com for more information. Visitors are always welcome!
