Barn Quilt Painting (Dec 6)
with Jane Cade
$90
Experience Level: Beginner
Join the barn quilt movement by creating your own painted quilt block to use on the inside or outside of your home at Barn Quilt Painting on Saturday, Nov. 15 or Dec. 6 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in The Studio.
Students will begin with one of two options on a pre-primed board with a design already drafted. Students will tape and paint at their own pace, choosing from a wide variety of colors.
Instructor Jane Cade will share a history of barn quilts, techniques, tips, and discuss how to properly seal your finished piece after the paint has dried for 48 hours. Leave with a 20×20″ wooden ‘quilt block’ to keep for yourself or share your talents and give someone a handmade gift.
$90/person. Registration closes one week before each course begins or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.
— Nov. 15
