Two Sundays
February 20th & 27th
10:00am to 2:00pm
Level 1
In this two-session class, students will learn a variety of techniques to create perfect triangle blocks in their quilts. You’ll make four quilt blocks incorporating several of the most common triangle configurations: half square triangles, quarter square triangles, flying geese, square in a square, and half rectangle triangles. Each student will receive a pattern for the Mastering Triangles, Sampler Blocks pattern, and a reference workbook.
The focus of this class is piecing quilt tops and will not cover finishing the quilt (quilt sandwich, quilting, and binding).
