UNM Winter Courses

Calling all Albuquerque locals--I have a couple classes approaching in the coming months that will take place at Ann Silva's Sewing Center on Tuesday nights from 6 - 8:30 pm.

Modern Sampler Quilt (February 4 - March 11)

Delve into the emerging world of modern quilting. Experience piecing techniques including improvisational, strip, pixel, foundation paper and curved. Compose a quilt top containing nine unique blocks set in an alternate grid layout. Experiment with bold colors, innovative background choices, on-trend fabrics, negative space, geometric shapes, Internet resources, and reinterpretation of traditional quilt blocks. This course is suitable for those with basic sewing skills, rotary cutting experience, and knowledge of quilt construction. Sewing machines are available for use free-of-charge at Ann Silva's Sewing Center.



Quilt Top to Finished Quilt (March 18- April 15)

Gain the skills necessary to turn an unfinished quilt top into a completed quilt. Various contemporary basting, binding and free-motion quilting methods will be explored. This course is suitable for those with basic sewing skills, rotary cutting experience, and knowledge of quilt construction. Sewing machines are available for use free-of-charge at Ann Silva's Sewing Center.
