Hoppin Bobbin Newsletter
Hoppin Bobbin E News
| April has been an exciting month for Hoppin Bobbin. We have had some great classes, some new teachers and some new patterns come out. I'm excited about the NJ Quilt festival that we are vending at this week. So, for our New York and New Jersey fans we are a little closer, stop in and visit this weekend. May will be a slower month and I am looking forward to a little bit of down time for sewing and creating some new patterns. And trying to get prepared for a June filled with quilt shows. Thanks to Barb and Elisabeth for holding the fort down for me while I'm gone. I wouldn't know what to do without them! Stop in and visit them this week! Kelly |

Rangley Wall Quilt The streamlined construction of this star block was conceived while working at a retreat in Rangeley, Maine: hence the name. Using Deb’s Tucker Trimmer tool and an additional trim, all those complicated star points become simple to make. The project has a complex look, but is actually very easy to construct. Just what we like! With Sharon Riley Sharon is a certified Studio 180 Instructor Saturday, May 5th from 10-3 |
