Details

In this very creative and “not square at all” little quilt, we will use different techniques to stitch the 29 stars without cutting them out...  You will be taught to stitch loose entities as well which will open doors in future to use as a creative tool.  Learn about balance and subtle use of colour.  Very playful and most twinkling experience.
