Psychedelia Template Set

Template of the month program 2020

We are honored to be able to present to you Psychedelia, Jen Kingwell’s quilt blocks ode to the 60’s and the Psychedelic Art movement of that period of time. As some of us remember, it was the era where Lava lamps were popular, Beatlemania changed the music forever, flower power existed, the Barbie doll was born and bell-bottom jeans were cool. The quilt reflects this uninhibited, lively, and hip style.

In this 12-month program, (you must purchase all 12 months) the participants will purchase a set of templates and a line drawing will be included for each block. Scrappy, yes very Scrappy!

For this scrappy block of the month, we will offer a stunning combination of colorful retro and modern fabrics (here) to get you started, all pulled together with black and white background prints (here)  creating brilliant high contrast blocks. A fabric kit of black and whites to complete all blocks will be available for purchase. We will also offer a scrappy fabric bundle for purchase.

A monthly class is offered where you can come learn new techniques for these blocks that the fear of applique, paper piecing, traditional piecing and hand sewing will all be forgotten. Isn’t it time to broaden our horizons with this beautiful quilt.

Come join us on what promises to be a once in a lifetime Psychedelic Trip back to the 60’s.
