ELLISIMO CLUB—NEW FORMAT Due to the growing size of our Ellisimo Club, we are scheduling three classes this quarter. All classes taught by Jackie.

Ellisimo Club— Basics: We’ll have fun “button-pushing” and find out what all those icons are for. We’ll also explore some basic techniques. This class is for all new owners and those who want a refresher. FREE Ellisimo Club—Beyond the Basics: We will have two identical sessions for this class—one in Northridge and one in Simi. We will continue to play with some of the wonderful functions of our machine. We will learn some of the quilting techniques you asked for including mitering corners, stippling (free motion) and quilting in embroidery mode. Also, we’ll try out some of those mysterious feet that you are curious about. $10

$75 for each class if machine was not purchased from Kingdom. Supply list provided after you sign up.

Basics: January 12 Saturday 9:30-—3:00 (or so…..) Simi Store Beyond the Basics: Jan. 26 Saturday Simi OR Feb. 2 Saturday Northridge Both: 9:30-3:00 (or so)

JACKET-IN-A-DAY WITH SUSAN GODFREY This jacket is easy and fun to make. You will embroider a design on your jacket, as well as construct it. The design, from Anita Goodesign Asian Mini Collection, and pattern will be supplied as a part of the class price payable at signup. You will also receive a supply list at that time.

The jacket is easily lined as jacket and lining are handled as one while using bias binding to finish the raw edges and join the two. This pattern is very versatile and can be finished or embellished in a number of ways. Let your imagination be your guide.

Susan will be available to do the pattern alteration for you if bust or high-round adjustment is needed. The garment, lining and bias binding must be cut out and ready to sew prior to the class.

The embroidery can be done on all machine formats. Class fee is $45.

March 9 Saturday 9:30-4:00 Susan Godfrey Northridge

THREAD PAINTING Thread Painting is a relaxed technique using free motion stitching to create or embellish a picture. If you haven't tried it yet, this is a golden opportunity to give it a whirl. You’ll start with simple exercises to learn the basics then continue on where ever your imagination takes you. Thread painting expert, Lisa Miller, brings to Kingdom samples of her artwork to lead you on an adventure into this fascinating technique. Cost for this class is only $20. Supply list available when you sign up.

February 2 Saturday 10:00-2:00 Lisa Miller Simi

Quilt Classes by Gina Siembieda

For interest in the classes, please put name and phone number and possible days interested for class on the form found at the front desk. I will contact once we have a minimum of 3 and schedule the class date. We can schedule classes on Tues, Wed, Thurs or Sat. All classes are 10 am - 3 pm - $25 payable to Gina on day of class. Class Descriptions and highlighted technique:

1 2 3 4 5 1. Charm Pack Table runner Technique: fast Prairie Points, facing binding

A good beginner project using one 5" charm pack for the top. It looks completely different with different selections of fabrics. The combinations are endless. 2. Convergence Placemats Technique: Convergence, machine quilting and binding

This project uses just 4 fat quarters to create the 4 placemats. Contrast between the fabrics high-lights the piecing. It can also be made into a wall hanging rather than placemats. 3. Jewel Box Baby Quilt Technique: Half-square triangles & four-patches

This quilt can be made as a baby quilt or wall hanging, but can also be expanded to any size quilt. It is a great beginner's quilt for learning some of the most useful basics of quilting. 4. Liberated Log Cabin Technique: Piecing without rules & curved piecing

This quilt is for those who want to break away from the rules of quilting. It uses your creativity and spontaneity to create something truly unique. It can be a small project or large and an opportunity to use up all those scraps that you don't know what to do with them. 5. Sewing Machine Caddy Technique: Zipper & quilting practice

This is a personalized caddy that you can make to sit on your sewing table, under your sewing ma-chine. It will hold your most used tools right at your fingertips, with a thread catcher and zippered com-partment. It's perfect to take with you when you go to classes and retreats, or for use at home. A little bit of info about me...I have been quilting for about 25 years, sewing since I was 12. I have enjoyed doing many crafts, but once I started quilting, I found my passion. I was the featured quilter at my quilt guild's quilt show in August 2012 and am very honored to have two quilts entered at Road to California quilt show in Ontario, January 2013 (shown below). I enjoy teaching classes and look forward to having the opportunity to offer classes at Kingdom Sewing Center.
