D. CRAZY QUILT VESTTWO DAYS
Highlight a velvet vest with crazy quilt back section and yokes. The vest can be used for special occasions or dressed down using wools, cottons, and denims. The crazy quilt sections are worked separately and applied to the vest later. Come to class with lining, fronts and back cut out in fancy fabric of your choice. Choose a pattern that fits you well. Bring remainder of fabric for crazy quilting. First day is designing and basic crazy quilting using the Montano Center Piece Method. Second day is devoted to embroidery and embellishments.
