Accents: Let Your Leftovers Shine (Susan Wessels)

Details

Let your leftovers shine.

Grow a quilt from your scraps and those fabrics that you like but have no idea what to do with. Students will be guided in fabric selection (before and during the class) and learn a piecing process that is both intuitive and easy to follow. Learn to freehand cut for a more relaxed look. If you want to piece with more freedom but still end with a flat, easy-to-quilt top, this class is for you. Students will go home with a finished lap quilt-sized top.

No kit required.
