SUMMARY:06/20/26 Machine Applique' Schoolhouse - Maureen Stevens
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 20\, 2026\, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm\nBoise Rigging Supply\n6750 West Victory Road\, Boise\, Idaho \nThis is a learn it-and-do it class.  We will learn about several types of machine appliqué.  We will explore using different materials and stitches on our machines.  I hope to cover fusible\, faced\, turned under edges and raw edge. I will provide you with a handout of instructions and a packet of products to use in the appliqué process. We will use the blind hem stitch\, zig-zag\, and blanket stitch on our sewing machines.  If your machine only has a straight stitch we do have some machines that can be rented. Talk to Janice Black about that.  I will give you instructions and patterns and have different products for appliqué for you to try.  We will make a “sampler” of techniques and products and if desired make a pillow-top using one of the techniques.  Come prepared to have a great time with fellow class members and try out some new techniques and ideas.  Cost is $15.00. \nSupply list:\nSewing machine in good working order\nneedles and feet for machine to do various stitches\nrotary cutter\, mat and ruler\npins\, scissors and seam ripper\npencil or marking instrument\niron and pad (we will have a couple of irons and boards available)\napplique pressing sheet (or can use baking parchment paper) \nScraps in various sizes and colors (for the pillow top you will need a 7″ square of green and a 7″ square of a fall color)\nFat quarter of muslin for the “sampler” piece\nA 12″ square of a suitable background for the pillow top\nThread colors to match your scraps\nPermanent ink pen to write on the muslin (no Sharpie–it bleeds) \nPlease note that June 13 is the deadline to either register for the class or request a refund.

SUMMARY:10/24/26 "Fearless Foundation Paper Piecing: Tips and Techniques to Make FPP Easier and More Fun" by Esther Kleinkauf Schoolhouse
DESCRIPTION:This class is for someone who has done some FPP\, especially if some part of the process is frustrating to you. I really want to invite anyone that has tried FPP and given up on it. You are missing so much! \nWe will discuss everything from what constitutes a quality pattern to why the size of the pieces is not what defines the difficulty (and what does). I will give you ideas on how to organize your fabrics and how best to cut pieces to minimize frustration from too small pieces. We will also look at what “paper” is best to sew on and you will get to try 3 different kinds. \nYou will be making at least 3 blocks designed especially to demonstrate and practice the ideas discussed. \nSupply List \n\nSewing Machine – Set up with a #70 needle and a Straight Stitch Foot. (I prefer a clear plastic foot)\nThread – The “best” choice is 80 wt Deco Bob. If you are just starting out\, buy a mini cone in a light shade of your favorite neutral. If you have 100’s of spools of thread \, like I do\, you can use other fine threads. I would not recommend anything heavier than Aurifil 50 wt.\n“Add a Quarter” and “Add an Eighth” rulers. For this class you need the 6 inch ones. The ones labeled “Plus” are not more useful.\nSmall and large (45mm) rotary cutters\, small cutting mat\, small rotary cutting rulers (nothing larger than 6in x 12 in}.\nSmall Scissors or thread snips.\nSmall ironing board and small iron. The classroom will have irons.\nA rectangle of heavy/crisp plastic for folding back pattern sections. Mine is 3.5 inches by 7 inches for no particular reason. You can also just use the heaviest advertising/political postcard that shows up in your mailbox.\nGlue stick -I was once told that the UHU brand is the best for fabric to paper gluing.\nPins – You won’t need more than a half dozen. My preferred pins right now are Clover Patch work pins with the blue and yellow heads. They have the right balance of thinness and length.\nClover MINI clips. I have some to give out if you don’t already own any.\nAcorn Precision Piecing Pen – You can buy the Essentials pack or the Starter kit and get their Easy Press fabric treatment\, but you can fill the pen with other liquids such as Best Press\, Magic Starch or even water…but you really need the pen!\nBallpoint awl/stiletto\nPaper and pen to take notes.\n\nOptional Supplies: \n\nLight box with translucent mat\nRoxanne’s or other glue\nTailor’s clapper\nSeam ironing bar
