Supplies to bring to class:
1. Sewing machine in working order. If you haven’t changed your needle in a while, now is the time. An 80/12 sharp needle is ideal, 90 is second best.

3. General sewing supplies: sewing needles, fabric scissors, a fine seam ripper (for those tiny paper piecing stitches), and fine, sharp straight pins.
4. 12” Paper piecing ruler
5. Paper scissors and glue stick.
6. Rotary cutter, ruler and mat.
7. Fabric required is as follows:

Outer Border Fabric including binding: ¾ yard on crosswise grain OR 11/4 on lengthwise
Inner Border Fabric: ¼ yard

Hula Skirts: 1/4 yard
Skin of Hula Kids 5 skin colors: 1/8 yard each
