Barbara Dann
Bellefonte, Pennsylvania

Who wakes up one morning, realizes quilting is her dream and passion (although she’d never quilted before), and buys a longarm quilting machine? Barb Dann! That was 13 years ago, and she’s never looked back. She loves the way Deb Tucker’s Studio 180 Design tools improve quilter’s piecing, and as one of only 2 certified demonstrators, can’t wait to share them with you in a fun and informative session you’re sure to never forget!

Constellation - Using the Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star Tool, Half Day

Finally! A tool and technique to quickly, easily and accurately piece traditional Lemoyne Star blocks in 10 different sizes! The blocks are strip pieced, assembled without “Y” seams, and pieced slightly over-sized so each can be trimmed to perfection. In class you will learn the process and construct several different sized stars that you can use to make your own Constellation quilt. Accuracy + precision + easy to use = FUN STRESS-FREE QUILTING! Join Barb and see for yourself how easy it can be to make a Lemoyne Star! All levels. Materials List: Basic Sewing Supplies.
