Kevin the Quilter is in town. He came to speak at my large quilt guild,
Pride of the Prairie, and also to teach a class. His presentation last night was great! Sorry I didn't get any photos, but I was holding up quilts (and getting to be one of the 'Huffman's Hotties' (search his blog and find the Huffman Hotties).
Today was Kevin's Crumb Star class. Kevin taught us how to 'make' fabric from our tiniest scraps. Remember that large bucket of scrap fabric I sorted?

Lots of ladies used fabrics from the bucket, but it still feels pretty full.
Here are some of the pieces of fabric I made.

What a fun class! Tomorrow is another class, with my little quilt guild, Wego Quiltin'. We'll be learning String Stars from Kevin. Guess where that bucket of scraps will be tomorrow.
