HERE'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW...
FIRST, choose a design. I will be posting some samples. If you have a design in mind, please send it to me. We want to make sure it’s something you can do based on time allotment and your experience.
COST:
1’x1’- $35
1'x2' (2 panel) - $55
2’x2’- $75
3'x3' - $100
4'x4' - $150
*** PLEASE NOTE: SMALLER IS NOT EASIER - make sure if you are doing a small board (1') that you choose a design with large paintable areas. 😉
NEXT, submit payment to:
Check/Cash: Melissa Altizer, 54 Coleys Cliff, New Castle VA 24127
Venmo: melissa-altizer (8594)
Cash App: $melissa
Once your board is paid for, I will confirm receipt and your registration.
FINALLY, send your design/size choice to Melissa Zimmerman Altizer (FB) / 540-293-8594 (text) or send it to your host to forward to me.
CANCELATIONS: Once your board is grafted there are NO
REFUNDS. If you cannot attend, feel free to find someone to take your spot or complete your board at a future class.
All supplies EXCEPT for PAINT are provided. Your board will be prepped and grafted upon your arrival.
INTERIOR HANGING: If you are hanging your board inside or on a covered area you can use acrylic paint. You can find these in the craft section at Walmart, Michaels, or JoAnn's...Apple Barrel and Folk Art brands are the best in my opinion.
EXTERIOR HANGING: If you are hanging your quilt where it will be exposed to weather you will need to purchase sample size
EXTERIOR PAINT colors from your local Lowe’s, Home Depot, or Sherwin Williams. Pick your color swatch and they will mix it.

CLOTHING: Wear clothes you don't care to get paint on...it will happen! Also, wear comfortable shoes - standing is more comfortable when painting most areas of your board.
FOOD/DRINKS: Please bring a packed lunch, snacks, and drinks for the day.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST - come expecting a great time, new friends, and a new hobby!
