let the length of this list dismay you. You know you’ll be working with a group
of like minded people who’ll be willing to share if there’s something you’ve
forgotten!
Sewing
and Fabric Supplies:
¨Sewing
machine in good order (oil it and have it serviced
before class). We will be free motion sewing, so you need a machine whose feed
dogs can be lowered or covered.
¨Darning
foot (or whatever attachment you like to use for free motion sewing)
¨Extra
needles
¨Bobbins-
one wound with white thread, one with black. If you have Bottom Line thread or
other high quality bobbin thread, use that
¨Straight
pins
¨Scissors
(both paper scissors and fabric scissors)
¨Rotary
cutter, straight edge ruler, and mat
¨Thread
– one spool each of good quality black and white piecing weight thread; if you
have room, throw in some other colors as well (see Optional Supplies)
¨Solid
white cotton broadcloth (or other quilt weight cotton) Buy tightly woven white
cloth – test it by laying it on top of black cloth; you don’t want the white
fabric to be greyed by the black fabric underneath
Precut for class:

12”
1 piece, 11 X 17”
2 pieces, 18 X 24”
And bring extra, just

3 pieces cut to approximately 9 x 12 “

double-sided fabric adhesive you like using, you may substitute; I think SaS2
