Saturday, November 15 – Tara Faughnan Galactic Quilt Workshop – Zoom
“Log cabin style quilts are some of my favorites to make and to look at, the variations on such a simple and humble block are endless. In this class you will learn how to draft a template, work with a large 60 degree angle diamond, and how to square up after each round of sewing to achieve a perfect block without a paper foundation.”
TIME: 10am - 4:45pm with a 45-minute lunch break from 1-1:45pm
COST: $150
We still have space available. It’s an early celebration to kick off our 10th (Diamond) Anniversary next year!
