Fat Quarterly Classes

Like so many of you, I am starting to get REALLY excited about the Fat Quarterly retreat that is quickly approaching.  Our class lists were recently circulated so now we know what I'll be doing over the weekend (other than chatting with bloggy friends, running around London and just having a wonderful time in general). I was that pain-in-the-bum girl who had to switch a few things around, so I am a bit late sharing my class schedule with you.  Thank you, Tacha, for helping me re-arrange my courses!

First up I have Photography with Judith Dahmen.  Judith has a wonderful blog filled with eye candy so I am thrilled to have a chance to talk about photographing quilts with her.  If I could even come close to what she creates I would be a happy girl.

On Saturday morning I will take Eraser Stamps with Tacha.  I would love to make a little fluffy sheep stamp of my own.  With a little googling I found a few other ideas that I like, too!

I then move on to hand quilting with Mandy.  I have dabbled in hand quilting as an embellishment, but can't quite work out how to quilt a full quilt.  The stitches on the quilt back go all funny and sideways.  If I could ever create something like my two hand quilting heroes, I'd be thrilled.

And finally on Sunday morning I will learn Cathedral Windows from Brioni Greenberg.  I would love to make a table runner (or something small) anywhere near as pretty as this.

I have high hopes, then.  I know the weekend will be fantastic, but if I could learn and improve a bit more I'd be thrilled.  If nothing else, the retreat is always a great source of inspiration and new friends.  That alone gets my heart fluttering.
