Take a campus tour of the famous Chicago School of Fusing.  This mythological university is devoted to the promotion of the fine art of fusing, a non-traditional method of assembling quilts with fusible web. Laura Wasilowski, Dean of Corrections at the School, guides you around the campus buildings, introduces you to the facinating fusing curriculum, and shows you the exciting campus life of the student fuser.  Included in the presentation is a review of the fusing processes, a display of actual fused art quilts, and Laura's own rendition of the Chicago School of Fusing fight song.  Press on!
A trunk show of hand dyed fabrics and threads from the ARTFABRIK dyers is included.

In this tempting class create a small art quilt teeming with every flower in creation. Build a blooming garden on a green base of lush leaves, curly ferns and wavy blades of grass. Add simple daisies, jolly tulips, and colorful chrysanthemums to the mix and you have a garden that Eve would envy. All from colorful fused fabrics.

Directions for free cutting flowers and leaves and fused quilt assembly processes are covered.
