Supply List:
Follow the fabric requirements / kit, pattern easy requirement, & steam a seam 2 requirement off of the pattern you have chosen. I'll bring supplies also with me to purchase if needed.
- Karen K Buckley medium size (blue handle) scissors - serrated edge a must! or Laura Heine new pink handles
- Steam a Seam 2 - please only use this as your fusible, no exceptions!
- Precision Fusing Sheet 17 x 24 - A must
- 1 yard muslin or pressing cloth to protect ironing surface.

- #2 Pencil for tracing pattern - (not a mechanical pencil) & pencil sharpener - I'll bring you a pencil and mat scrapper
- Press and Cut Board, or equal / travel iron
- Rotary cutter and ruler
- 1 or 2 unscented dryer sheets and several paper towels for cleaning scissors and iron if needed. I'll bring a box with me
You will need about 20 - 30 different scale floral type fabrics (shells, birds, butterflies, types of fabrics add interest). Refer to your pattern for color or make up your own color pallet. Don't forget about your background, either will be one whole cloth, pieced or can be collaged also! Small amounts are plenty, about 4" x 6" are perfect. You will adhere fusible before cutting out shapes. If you have a Press and Cut Board, bring it along with a travel iron for your station. This will be a great help with being productive.
Please bring ALL items on supply list for a successful class. We have all these items here at Quilters Cottage, no need to run around town searching for your items.
If you need me to bring supplies / kit / pattern etc call the shop and purchase or buy online and put in notes in store pickup and state it is for retreat and that way you will not be charged postage and I'll bring it to you. Or if you are close, come in shop and purchase.
Do not work ahead with construction!
snacks to share if you want, I'll have lots, so this is optional.
specific drinks that you may want, I'll bring some variety
