Jane Timmer news.....

For those intending to attend the Jane Timmer class in April in 2010 (I can't believe we have to discuss this already), I need to have your names as she has the Americana Boxes and she's putting the kits together, and since it's a pre-stitch we want them asap. To update you...Jane will be teaching "More Finer Points of Finishing". This is actually Part III of the Finer Points of Finishing. Students will continue to expant their repertoire of finishing techniques by making a set project that features hands-on techniques not previously covered in Parts I and Part II, plus expanded text covering these techniques. The project is a new set of accessories based on a design theme of quilt stars stitched on linen in primitive colors. The set includes a lined rectangular box, a small case with needle page and scissors pocket, a sandwich pinkeep, a tape measure pocket and a scissors fob. The finishing techiques covered are: Folded book finish with slipstitch join, Sandwich pinkeep, Lining a rectangular/square box, Scissors fob (laced backstitch) and Sewn pocket. In order to take this class you much have taken Part I or have Jane's permission. So please let me know if you intend to take this class so that we can get your supplies to you.
