Pebbles in the Stream or Shore

Instructor: Helene Knott
Date: Saturday, October 17th, 2026 from 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Cost - $50.00 (Member), $55.00 (Non-Member)
 
Pebbles in the Stream or Shore
Walk down any Oregon beach or stream, and you will find tons of them – pebbles in all sizes, shapes, and colors. Many are polished smooth from their journey through the sea, and many have inclusions of quartz or fossils; you can even find the occasional agate scattered among the other stones. In this class, you will learn how to make surprisingly realistic dimensional pebbles scattered over a sandy beach or stream-like background to create a small pebble sampler. Making the pebbles is a handwork project; you will not need a sewing machine for the pebbles themselves, but you will want to bring a layered, pre-quilted (stippled) background panel to apply your pebbles to. Come join me on Saturday, October 17th, at the Latimer Quilt and Textile Center and start your own collection. Once you start, it's hard to stop.
