Open Enrollment Classes
“Open enrollment” means that I’m putting the class on myself as opposed to a guild or shop hosting me for a class. Open enrollment classes are available to anyone, anywhere. The only consideration is the time zone. I am on Central time in the U.S.
If you’d like a specific class and it’s not listed, please email me and I’ll see what I can do. (diane@stashbandit.net)

Pine Burr Folk Art Quilt: Saturday, Jan 7, 10 to 2 on Zoom
This intriguing technique is simple and addictive for making the most textural fiber art ever. It’s not technically a quilt but it will knock your socks off!

Your Pine Burr can be from 12″ up to a bed-size piece—it’s up to you. Upon registration you’ll receive instructions for precutting and pressing so you’re ready to hit the ground running in class. Basic cutting and sewing skills are needed to succeed in this class. This class will be recorded and made available to ticket holders for several days after the live event.

StarQuar Scrap Quilts: TBD in 2023, $65
Use all your scraps to make something amazing! Learn the sweetest, easiest and most entertaining technique for Stash Bandit’s StarQuar units in this full day class. Then learn to use your scrappy creations together to make a variety of designs. You can go for any look you like—there’s no end to the possibilities for StarQuars.
This class is for confident makers who have basic cutting and sewing skills down. We’ll focus on the simple StarQuar technique plus the concepts of color, value, contrast, scale, line and cohesion. It’s perfect for the quilter who wants to combine fabrics more effectively to get fabulous results.
Your cutting can be done before class if you like so you can get to the sewing more quickly. All the basic StarQuar patterns and ideas are included, and additional StarQuar patterns will be available for purchase.
