A Quilter's Lumberyard Program Intro and Quilt Gallery

Do you have scraps?

A Quilter’s Lumberyard® is a unique system of scrap management. Use the “lumberyard” approach to cut, organize, and store scraps in four ready-to-sew sizes. Using a “lumberyard” theme, Cheryl and Patty inspire you to look at your scraps differently. During this two-hour journey, generously sprinkled with noteworthy sewing tips, imaginative ideas, and dashes of humor, they will

• describe a simple system to organize and store your scraps.

• provide dozens of block ideas to demonstrate the four sizes of lumberyard units and the “raw lumber” from which they are cut.

• showcase a large gallery of quilts and other projects created within the “lumberyard” framework.

• relate how a humble scrap management system can become the foundation for beautiful lumberyard “project” quilts.
