String Piecing may look complex but is very easy to accomplish using Ilene’s method which utilizes a variety of colored strips that are first sewn onto a stabilizer background and then trimmed. Explore a variety of color choices and placement of lights and darks, which are a vital part of success to achieve the desired result. You will also learn how to use piping to create a clean, finished edge and how to finish the quilt using a facing.
There are four different kit options for this class. Once enrolled, please email info@sewingexpo.com with which kit you would like to work on in class.
