This is one class you do not want to miss. Curves take your quilt to a much higher level. This combined with some paper piecing makes it even more impressive and better yet, it is easy to do. Let Nelly show you her process to make perfect curves and learn the easiest paper piecing technique to construct your own version of this dramatic wall quilt. She will also share many of her piecing and quilt construction tricks. There are many sizes and possibilities. You can choose to make anything from a long, four-block skinny quilt to a bed quilt. Your blocks may or may not include paper piecing, depending on which one you choose. The only requirement is that you can stitch an accurate 1/4-inch seam. Bring your own fabric; see supply list for details.
