Ricky Tims is teaching a FREE online class on his Kool Kaleidoscope pattern:
The first session is on making Strata--strips of fabric cut in various widths, sewn into "cloth". Next, we will learn how to create our templates.
This is not a project carefully thought out in advance. Whatever happens, happens, when we start to cut out the pieces. For those who agonize over every fabric choice, this is a challenge. And exactly why those people should try it. Follow Ricky's instructions and "trust the process".
Here are my 5 strata "fabrics"--I still have to make an "identical twin" of each of these before Friday July 30, when Ricky shows in the second lesson how to create the templates.

While this class is available free to all, there are lots of great reasons to be a Star Member of The Quilt Show--17 years of shows at your fingertips, including show # 403 where Ricky taught this project, years ago. And so much more. There is a membership special on right now, a big discount of $10 off for new or renewing Star Members, $39.95 for an entire year of membership. That's 77 cents/week--quite a deal.
Go the homepage: The Quilt Show and use Code 2RENEW10 to snag your discount.
We had the pleasure of having super kid Stella visit us for the day recently. She will be a big first grader starting next week, when life gets busier. So we put in a request for a visit--her brother is at daycare so we had Stella all to ourselves.
She picked blackberries (they are getting scarce), practiced riding her two-wheel bike, baked chocolate chip cookies, asked for pizza for lunch, and after lunch, during quiet time, she enjoyed a little iPad time--she is a great puzzle solver. We love our Kool Kid!
Let's quilt.
