Description: This striking pattern is made from two simple blocks, both created using a tube technique. I will demonstrate a lap size in class, but by making more or less blocks you can make from a baby to a king size quilt. This quilt can be made using precut 2½” strips, or cut from yardage.
Get tips for sewing accurate ¼” seams and choosing the right thread and tools. This quilt is made using a fun strip tube method with an optional “Strip Tube Ruler”, or a regular square up ruler 8” or larger. We will practice cutting and pressing techniques for more perfect patchwork. We will learn to match seams so everything fits precisely. Try out some new tools and master how to put it all together by making this cozy quilt.
