Block Workshop: Buzzard's Roost (intermediate)

Session #1: Thursdays, Sept 21, Oct 19, and Nov 16   10:30-2:30

Session #2: Saturdays, Sept 23, Oct 21, and Nov 18    1:30-4:30

Design your own quilt around this block (9”, 10” or 12”) and its variations.  Nancie assists with math, color and construction, while offering time-saving tips along the way.  The class meets once a month for three months.

Supplies:

•       Rotary cutter
•       Cutting mat to use at your table
•       Acrylic rulers, long and short
•       Square ruler, at least 6x6”
•       Half-square triangle ruler (Creative Grids 45)
•       Sewing accessories (scissors, pins, etc.)
•       Fabric and thread
•       Sewing machine with ¼” foot and other accessories
•       Bobbins, wound and ready

Fabrics:

Each quilt will be unique in size and design, and therefore, the amount of fabric will vary.  For reference, the large class model was made with  8 FQs plus 2¾  yds. light background, and 2½ yds. border. The small quilt was made with 5” centers (suitable for Charm Squares), a variety of greens, and ¾ yd. light background.

Note: It is not necessary to select all your fabrics before the first class. Bring enough to make a few blocks in class, and we’ll discuss additional fabrics.
