Freestyle Quilts – Odette Tolksdorf

Class 306 – Page 39 – Wednesday & Thursday, 3 & 4 July – Two Days

Ah.... no rulers or templates for this class.  Learn to freehand cut simple geometric shapes using traditional quilt blocks as your starting point to create a variation on these.  You can either finish your quilt top on day 1 and continue quilting it on day 2 or decided to go big and carry on playing with new and fun blocks.

Curvy Squares – Simone Schofield


Class 302 – Page 40 – Wednesday & Thursday, 3 & 4 July – 2 Days

The first thing you should notice is how much prettier the photo in this post looks compared to the one in our program.  Now don’t you just want to make this?


In this class you’ll be using a new technique that looks complicated but is really very easy.  Learn to make your own bias binding and different techniques in making applique fun.

Even though Simone has taught workshops on cruise ships, she’ll make sure you’ll have just as much fun doing this course in her classroom.
