This collection of classes will take you through fall and winter, and into the spring. We hope there's something for everyone to enjoy. Clicking on the links below will take you directly to each class page.
Series 2: Beginning Sewing Series
These classes will be taught by Marti and Ruth, and began October 17.
Brand-new courses at Yankee Pride, these classes are aimed toward people who are new to sewing. We found lots of new sewers during the pandemic, and they want to keep on learning. Beginning Sewing is broken down into three classes, covering accessories and home decor.
Series 3: Technique Workshops
These one-time workshops will be taught by Yankee Pride staff.
We're offering several workshops, covering many quilting techniques. Most are basic, but they're things that can be improved in your sewing by learning tips and tricks, and with some practice. Click on the technique for more information or to sign up online:
You may sign up for one or more of these workshops, or for the whole series.
Our Beginner Series of classes, which includes Introduction to Quilting and Machine Piecing, has been scheduled for Winter 2022. The Intro class is for those who want to get started learning the basics of quilting. The Machine Piecing class is for those who are comfortable with the basics of cutting and piecing but want to improve on precision and increase their knowledge of slightly more advanced techniques. It's a perfect follow on to the Introduction to Quilting class. Click on the class for more info or to sign up for the class.
If you have questions, please give us a call at 802/872-9300.

We received a wonderful selection of Kansas Troubles "Hope Blooms" fabrics. We also have layer cakes and jelly rolls to coordinate with the yardage. These are always lovely and coordinate beautifully with any other Kansas Troubles fabric in your stash. |

Weather Report
Robert Kaufman
|
"Weather Report", designed by Leslie Tucker Jenison, is wonderfully creative. She uses unconventional objects to generate abstract imagery to be used in any modern or contemporary quilt or landscape piece. |
|
|
In addition to several Hoffman "Watercolor" batiks that are wonderful blenders, we have also received these new batik designs. |

Watercolor Blossoms
by Robert Kaufman
|
Butterflies and flowers splashed across beautiful backgrounds of navy and lighter blue. The teal, green, and blue shades are reminiscent of cool ponds and water plants. |
|
Elysian
by In The Beginning
Jason Yenter's latest collection is stunning. The colors are vibrant and the coordinating butterfly border print would be a wonderful focus fabric for a new quilt for yourself or as a gift. It would also make a beautiful table runner.
