I took these classes to improve upon skills I learned in a quilting class over 25 years ago. This instruction provided a good background and brought me up to speed with new techniques from skilled quilters and designers.

I really enjoyed the class, the instructors were helpful and very knowledgeable. They provided so many examples and we had some hands on experiences. The cost was reasonable and I would very much like to be included in the mailing list for more classes and events. Thank you for offering these classes so we can all become better quilters.

BARN-IN-A-BASKET FLYER

It was my 1st year going & I was definately not disappointed. There’s so much to do and see there. I went with my significant other and we both had an amazing time! If you do go make sure you have some spending money since there’s so much to get there. So many vendors and crafts. I had a wonderful time, we both did and definately would go back again next year. They even had a quilt barn which we checked out and purchased one. We fell in love with it. Also there’s sooo much to eat there. You could eat your way across the entire site if you wanted, the food was great as well. Highly recommend for anyone of all ages to check out!
