Are you a sewist but would like to try quilting?  Are you a "Quilt Dabbler" but would like to learn more?  Then this class is for you!  There will be a quilt plan provided by the instructor, but you are also welcome to bring any projects of your own to class - plans or unfinished (lovingly referred to as UFO's) and Suzanne will be happy to help!  Come join our zen group of happy quilters!  Bringing your own sewing machine is encouraged.  Machine sewing experience is required.

Suzanne Rogalsky Art has been a lifetime journey for me. I began “crafting” as a child. I made whatever I could from anything I could find. My art path turned toward textiles when I was a young adult as I discovered that sewing my own clothes could be an excellent means of self-expression. I made my first quilt in my mid-twenties and that resulted in having three quilts in juried shows in Lancaster, PA., which was the heart of quilting at the time. Learning mixed media art was the next logical step as it combines fiber and paper arts together with lots of thread, gesso, paint and collage! I make quilts and other fabric items such as purses and ties from wedding dresses, and use thread and a sewing machine to “draw” on other people’s creations under my business name Sunny Stitches. I have been teaching my love of sewing, quilting, mixed media and journal making to others for over 20 years. I truly believe that everyone is creative and I hope to bring the freedom of expression and the gift of uniqueness out of every student.
