SEPTEMBER PROGRAM:
Rags to Riches: The Scrap Quilt (Lecture & Trunk Show)
Scrap quilts have been made for hundreds of years; sometimes out of necessity, sometimes just for fun. Today, scrap quilts are still as popular as ever, but many people struggle with deciding what fabrics to use - or not use - in their quilts, whether they are scrappy or not. The focus in this program is on working more instinctively with color, rather than getting bogged down with complicated color wheel terminology.

September Workshop
Merry May :
Rags to Riches - The Scrap Quilt
Thursday September 10, 2026 9:30 AM- 3:30 PM
Location: Covenant Presbyterian Church
400 Lancaster Ave., Malvern, PA
Fee: $60 (payable to Calico Cutters)
In the workshop, we will explore choosing colors more instinctively, rather than following a bunch of "rules." Learn about Values and Contrast and how to arrange your fabrics by Value (light to dark), then make a one-of-a-kind wall hang
It all starts with a fabric swap at the beginning of the workshop. This is not optional! Swapping with your friends will force you to use fabrics & colors you would normally not use. But the results are stunning, and you will be pleasantly surprised at the outcome. Finished top is about 38" square.
P.S. The tips on value and contrast you learn from Merry will come in handy during our October Workshop!
