Contemporary Crazy Quilting
Adult Intensive | Available
This fast-moving, fun class explores a spontaneous approach to a traditional quilting favorite, emphasizing contemporary design. Participants will learn a new way to piece quilt blocks together and create unique arrangements of blocks. Students will use rotary cutting and machine piecing to create pillow tops or start a quilt top. We will not quilt pieces during the class, but we will discuss quilting options.
- A supply list will be provided for participants
