Go GREEN by joining Nellie to experiment with her collage technique that recycles scraps of fabrics and threads, or "orts" as the British call them. Compose a small composition (no larger than 12"x 10") from a heap of bits and pieces contributed by Nellie and fellow class members during the first half of the workshop. Finish it by learning Nellie's method for machine quilting with invisible thread as well as binding the edge in her couched yarn technique during the second half. Take home a "green" quilt, or two, at the end of the day. To view Nellie's work that has been made with, or incorporates, her
