HoopSisters EmbroidaBlock
of the Month

Fun to Sew has combined forces with Hoopsisters.com to offer their unique Embroidablock™ of the Month program for 2009. The unique look of Embroidablock™ combines piecing with embroidery to produce a look of elegance and add interest to your quilts. The blocks are Pieced, Decorative Stitched, Embroidered and Quilted all in the Hoop! The Block of the Month is designed to give both the novice and master quilter a method of quilting that uses little or no math, requires minimal cutting, is innovative, fun and results in every block sewn to perfection!

The Moore class will be the 3rd Tuesday of each month beginning February 17th - we've got a 2 p.m. class and we will possibly add a 5:30 p.m. class on the same day if the first one fills up. The Edmond class will be on the 4th Wednesday or each month beginning February 25th at 10:30 a.m.

The quilt for 2009 is entitled "Crazy Compass" and is absolutely exquisite. As you see from the sample pictures, different fabric choices make each version of the quilt look totally different!

We will be meeting once a month for 10 months. The first nine months you will be stitching four blocks each month. The tenth month we will teach you Hoopsisters' unique sashing and joining technique. The blocks are available in 5" and 8" versions, so the quilt can be made on the Creative 2140/2144/2170 series as well as the Creative Vision embroidery machines. The 8" block size is perfect for the new Elite Hoop.

Fun To Sew is the only store in Oklahoma City offering this new technique. Be sure and sign up early, class size will be limited. Call store for more details.

Under the direction of Carol Vines. Block of the Month Quilt. Or, should we say BLOCKS of the month. This is Jenny's latest creation and is featured in her new book Jenny's Heritage Quilt. This is slightly different from the other quilts that Jenny has done. You will do more than one block each month with some embroidery done before class. Very little of the embroidery is done directly on the blocks. It will be a great challenge for you Jenny Haskins lovers. See class description for more information.
