Another wonderful instructor will be visiting the Olde Green Cupboard in February!! Cindy Blackberg has been quilting and teaching for 30 years. Her work is based on traditional American patchwork blocks. She uses many fabrics to create unique hand-pieced scrap quilts. Known for her love of handwork, her workshops reflect these skills she has perfected over the years. Cindy is now living in Tennessee where she developed and is teaching a brand new seminar, “Handwork in the Smokies.
If you are a lover of handwork, or if you’ve always wanted to learn how to hand-piece and embroidery - now is your chance. Please join all of us from the Olde Green Cupboard in welcoming Cindy back to her home town. Enroll today… you will be so glad you did. Cindy’s well known all over the country. Don’t pass up the opportunity to learn hand-piecing from the best! You will love her rubber stamps and her tricks of the trade.
Cindy will have a Friday night lecture on Sneaky Tips and Tricks of the Pros! Don’t miss this one…it’s great.

Fancy Flowers by Jan Vaine
Jan is offering the "Fancy Flowers" Baltimore Album class January 14 - 17, 2010.
In this class, Jan takes you on a journey through a botanical garden of embroidery stitches and threads. You will plant seeds of embroidered stems, leaves, flowers, and berries, stitched in different mediums. The garden of stitches will include couching, rope stitch, fishbone stitch, ribbon roses, colonial knots, stump work, just to name a few. The garden of embroidered stitches growing in your sampler workbook will guide and inspire you as you pick elements to include in your own exquisite flower arrangement.
Nurture your workbook allowing it to grow and expand well after class as you continue to interpret and experiment with new techniques and mediums. It will blossom into an invaluable tool for embellishing your album blocks.
