Quilted Pillow Case with Dona McKenzie

Embark on your quilting journey by mastering the Half Square Triangle, one of the essential quilt blocks. Students will learn precision cutting and piecing and how to create slightly oversized blocks and trim down to perfection.

You will choose your own palette to create a pillow that compliments your own home and lifestyle. Or create a masterpiece for a special friend or loved one.

This is not a difficult sewing project but does require basic sewing skills and attention to detail. Rotary cutting and precision pinning will be introduced. Students will select and purchase their own fabrics in advance (see supply list below), a combination of quilting cotton and complimentary cotton solids.

Max 6 students. 2 classes of 4 hours each with some homework in between.
