Kimberbell "Embroidery Quilts" and more

Choose one of the many Kimberbell Embroidery Quilt or Bench pillow projects, along with a fabric kit (or your own fabric selection).  Jenny will walk you through the process of organizing your materials as you cut, embroider and assemble you project. 

This is a 2 session class.  There will be a pre-meeting on Thursday, March 9, from 9:30-10:30 a.m. to discuss how to get started and prepare for the longer 2nd session.

On Thursday, March 23rd, bring your machine, embroidery module, cord and project supplies and plan to sew/embroider from 9:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. (there will be a lunch break).

Jenny is recommending choosing a bench pillow project, such as “Candy Cane Lane,” if you have never done a Kimberbell bench or quilt embroidery project before. It is a little less daunting than one of the quilts (intermediate vs. advanced). Once you have completed a bench pillow, you will find that the quilt projects follow the same procedure but are more detailed. However, you may choose any of the current Kimberbell bench pillows or quilts. You will need to purchase and embroidery CD for your project. It is highly recommended you also order an embellishment kit—you will have trouble assembling the appropriate embellishments from your stash—the embroidery designs are sized to work with the Kimberbell embellishments. Many of the bench pillows and quilts have an optional fabric kit to purchase. This is not as critical as the embellishment kits and using your own selection of fabrics is sometimes fun, because it is more personalized.
