If sewing curves scares you, this is the class for you. Pat found that this quilt can be done in so many different ways by using just three templates.
Pat will demonstrate this very easy technique and she will bring samples to show you. This quilt looks great in black/white, thirties, scrappy, just to name a few. You name the size of this quilt, the sky is the limit.
Sewing machine experience necessary.
