Quiltmaking: Building Beautiful Blocks
The premise of this beginning quiltmaking workshop is that if you can machine sew a few basic units, they can be combined into an infinite number of traditional blocks. We’ll also be exploring contemporary blocks requiring little or no measuring, giving you the freedom to choose your own style to create a small wall hanging. Fabric selections, color choices, borders, and bindings, will also be covered. Participants should have some sewing experience.
