Emerald City

This quilt is a great lesson in the use of color and value (contrast)!  Using the scrap crazy 6 rulers will make this quilt so much easier to make. Don't fear the angles............ the cutting rulers make it so easy to piece  the sections together.....  Even if you are a beginning quilter (you know how to use a rotary cutter), you can make this!

Tuesday Nov 27, 10:30 to 4
Class Fee:  $25
Instructor:  Martha Hannah

In this class, we will learn basic beginning quilting techniques like accurate cutting, ¼ inch seams, and learn how to make half square triangles.  We will then use those shapes to make the Ribbon Candy table runner that is in the Let’s Do Lunch book that is for sale at the Quilter’s Loft.  Pick your favorite fabrics or some Christmas fabric and make this pretty runner with me.  This is one of my favorite books to make table runners and there are many other things to make at a later date.
