For all Subsequent Classes:
Bring remainder of your black and white plus:
A good variety of cotton representing the entire range of COLOR or HUE (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, beige, grey)
and the entire range of VALUES (light, light medium, medium, medium dark and dark) in 1/2 yard - 1 yard cuts (some fat quarters are fine, but they
aren't very versatile). You can bring solids, prints, stripes, batiks, whatever you like so long as you have a wide variety of value and hue.
Fusible Web
In the middle of the session we will use fusible web. This goes by the name Wonder
Under and lots of different names. It is NOT interfacing. Make sure it has a paper
backing on one side. Start with 2 yards. You can always buy more (it is cheap).
We will not use sewing machines in this class.
