Kackling Kousins Publish Three Patterns for Quilters
Spring 2025 is Popping Up All Over
Yes, quilters, spring is popping up all over. Anyone else unsure of how we are at the end March already?
The Kackling Kousins offered a designing class on the "Tales of the First Ladies" block-of-the month on Monday, March 17, 2025. As you will see from the photos below, each of the quilters made progress. Some finished their blocks, while others started to make plans for their center medallion and quilt layout. The last class on this block-of-the-month will be held on Monday, May 19, 2025.
On Tuesday, March 25, 2025, a class on "Machine Quilting with Rulers" was held. This is a great introductory class for quilters who want to learn this technique. The students prepare two quilting sandwiches to test drive a number of rulers provided by The Kousins. Rulers allow quilters to be creative. Ruler quilting is custom quilting and a real "show stopper."

Free Motion Quilting at Hoovers
The next day, Tuesday, February 18, 2025, another group of quilters joined the Kackling Kousins at Hoovers to learn about free motion quilting techniques. Each quilter brought two 18"x18" quilt sandwiches to practice free motion quilting designs. The knowledge and skills were obtained in order for the quilters to be successful on their own quilting projects.
.Tale of the First Ladies Blocks Complete
Quilters attending the Tales of the First Ladies block-of-the-month class at Hoovers Bernina Sew completed all twelve blocks on Monday, February 17, 2025. This is a great group of ladies who are working hard to complete their quilt tops. The fellowship and laughter in this group are priceless. The last two classes will focus on quilt layout and designing of center medallions.
