We will create a wall hanging-sized quilt (approximately 40" x 40") using a simple foundation paper piecing pattern written by Nydia Kehnle and Alison Glass. If you haven’t used the foundation paper piecing method before, this is a great introductory class. There are only two blocks in the whole quilt.
If you choose to use Jennifer Sampou’s Sky Ombres, with their gradient range of values, you will have a head start with the design process. Or you can use other solid fabrics, making sure you choose light, medium and dark values to play with. Michelle will assist with palette selection and initial design on a design wall, or recreate the version shown here called “Diamonds in the SKY”. A kit is available for purchase here.
Michelle will also demonstrate foundation paper piecing techniques. She will talk about quilting possibilities, such as using a walking foot for easy, straight-line quilting.
This class is suitable for confident beginners to advanced quilters
