WEST VIRGINIA QUILT DOCUMENTATION PROJECT
We had a successful documentation day during the Jackson’s Mill Retreat last year so let’s try it
again in 2018. The goal is to gather information on quilts made before 1970 that were made in, or
currently reside in, West Virginia. Make an appointment (Friday, March 16th between 10am and
4pm) and a team of volunteers will measure, photograph, date and ID the pattern. Bring infor-
mation and pictures of the quiltmaker, but “maker unknown” quilts are also welcomed. Data gath-
ered will be stored in the WV Culture Center Archives and will be uploaded to the Quilt Index
(www.quiltindex.org). Information about quilt ownership will remain confidential.
Contact Fran Kordek for more information or to make an appointment (304-636-7973,
kordekfran@gmail.com). If you enjoy getting up close and personal to some pretty special quilts,
contact Fran to volunteer.
More information about the documentation project is on the WV Quilters, Inc. web site on the Docu-
mentation page (www.wvquilters.org). The West Virginia Quilt Documentation Project is sponsored
by West Virginia Quilters, Inc., in collaboration with the West Virginia Division of Culture and Histo-
ry.

SCHOLARSHIP—to honor MARTHA OFFUTT
Martha Offutt, one of the five instructors at the first Lewis County Quilt Retreat, passed away in October,
2016. She was recognized at our 20th anniversary in 2016. Martha taught quilting and needlework through-
out West Virginia. From one-day classes to week-long events, Martha shared her expertise and extended
her friendship to thousands of students in our state and beyond. She had a wide range of skills and taught
classes from applique to Hawaiian Quilting to Dimensional Embroidery. She designed patterns and was
most probably most well-known for her West Virginia Rose.
Martha was active with the West Virginia Quilters and served on the steering committee for the first Quilt
Documentation project. This committee’s work resulted in publication of the book, West Virginia Quilts and
Quiltmakers, in 2000.
After Martha’s passing in 2016, her family listed organizations that were important to her as sugges-
tions for memorial donations. The Lewis County Quilt Retreat was one of those. A scholarship
which will cover the registration fee of $80. will be offered to one student for the 2018 retreat.
The scholarship recipient will be chosen based on a brief application from the individual or a nomi-
nation from one or more others (retreat participants, guild members, or other friends).
The person must be a first-time participant in the Lewis County Quilt Retreat with the 2018 retreat.
To apply, or nominate someone, submit a regular retreat registration form and a brief (300 words or
less) statement about the person and his/her interest in learning to quilt or to improve existing skills.
Applications, nominations are due December 1, 2017, as the other registrations are.
Following judging, the applicants will be contacted. The scholarship recipient will be offered the op-
portunity to accept the scholarship and pay other fees (meals and lodging). Applicants not receiving
the scholarship will be given the choice of completing their registration with registration fees or de-
clining their registration.

BUILDING BLOCKS II: HALF-SQUARE TRIANGLES
Instructor: Barbara Jones
Skill Level: Beginner
Technique: Machine
Materials fee: None; students will purchase and bring own fabric and supplies
Description: Building on last year’s Building Blocks I course, this class will continue to discuss fundamental
quilting terms, skills and techniques. We will refresh ourselves on proper cutting methods and achieving an
accurate ¼” seam, and explore all the various techniques for making half square triangles. Once students have
tested the different methods, they can then decide what they prefer to complete their chosen block/quilt design.
Keep in mind that, just as with the Building Blocks I class, there is no set pattern or quilt design for this course.
A number of block designs will be demonstrated so that students may choose for themselves how they wish to
set their newly minted units. This course is intended to help quilting novices build a basic knowledge base and
skill set that will give them confidence in their ability to produce consistently sized and accurately pieced
blocks, and consequently, reduce frustration and add joy to the quiltmaking process. It is the second in a
planned series of skill-building workshops. Each subsequent class will handle a new technique – suggestions
are welcome.

raised embroidery flowers and foliage. These can then be used to turn an ordinary item
into something extraordinary. Many of the stitches can also be used for crazy quilting.
Once the stitches are mastered, we will work on using the stitches to make a block with a
basket and flowers. You can continue to make different baskets or use a single one to
make a pillow. All you need to bring to class is a thimble and scissors. (needle, scraps to practice on, and thread will be
provided)

whole new world of stitching creativity. You will have circles, curves and
swirls flowing across the fabric along with a new sense of the free motion ex-
perience. Your confidence will inspire you to learn how to stitch the beautiful feathers and motifs in Part 3

style then on to some more formal ones.

you are using.

or choose selective colors to create your own one-of-a-kind modern mosaic quilt.
Learn new piecing and cutting methods to help make these blocks go together quick-
ly. Note that the blocks do not necessarily have to be square – you can change your
mind as you construct. The hardest part of this quilt will be deciding which fabrics to
use!

(WEEKEND WORKSHOPS CONTINUED)
MYSTERY QUILT
Instructor: Ruth Ann Johnson
Level: All
Technique: Machine
Materials fee: $1.00 for printing
Description: It is a Mystery, all right, but it is friendly. Beginning quilter with little experience, or very advance
quilters with lots of experience will enjoy doing this quilt. It is easy; however, it is a little time consuming. It
will utilize lots of dark colored scrap strips (2 1/2 by 22 inches) plus fabric for joining those scrappy fab-
rics. The idea with this quilt is to share extra scrap strips with others in the class. Everyone will have as many
different dark colored pieces as possible. When you arrive back home, you will be able to point to different
pieces and say, "these pieces are from my friends at Jackson's Mill”—and solve the Mystery.

some of the topics we will discuss. We will make the Maddy Lynn baglike the

bottom half with the squares is made on grid. Come and make a nice purse.
REVERSE APPLIQUE

seams with confidence.

enced instructor.
