Expand on your quilting techniques with this class that features classic blocks and variations on them. Choose a theme that has “picture “ blocks, pictorial borders, and coordinating fabrics or make it a little simpler with one great fabric design matched with fabrics you love.

This class will make the quilt top only- if time allows we'll discuss the basics of backing and how to assemble and the benefits of quilting yourself versus using a long arm quilter.  No pre-washing is necessary- washing these small yardages makes them difficult to use!
