Description: Improvisational piecing and scrappy triangles combine to create artsy quilts, which are fun to piece and fabulous to look at! Choose from four different base units, with multiple size and layout options. You will want to make more than one of these quilts!
Fabric/Supply Requirements:
Note: Because there are many size and design options for this class, the fabric requirements are approximate. Although additional scrap fabrics may be added as you work, if you want to use one consistent fabric for your background, get more yardage than you think you need or use a fabric that is readily and widely available (for example, a Kona Cotton solid).
Fabrics:
Background – solid, tone-on-tone and/or small-scale print, subtle batik (monotone or just a couple of colors) or hand-dyed.
• Wall hanging – 1 yard
• Baby quilt – 2 yards
• Lap quilt – 3 yards
• Bed quilt – 4 to 6 yards
Triangles – fabrics can be totally scrappy or a more controlled color palette
• lots and lots of scraps (any shapes and sizes)
• triangle cut-offs from sew and flip or snowball corners
• leftover jelly roll strips
• 2 to 3 inch squares (or any sizes in between) – it is not necessary to cut these to an exact size
Equipment:
• Sewing machine
• BSK
• Rotary cutter and mat
• Rulers – a 24 inch long ruler and a small square ruler (i.e., 6 inches square), optional –half-square triangle ruler
