Deb Tucker designed a gorgeous new quilt, Fair Isle, which we will construct over a ten-month class period as a block-of-the-month/skill-builder. The classes will be taught on the second Sunday of each month. The project uses 180 Design’s Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star, Tucker Trimmer III, Wing Clipper I, Corner Beam, and Square Squared tools. The tools will be available in the shop during the class and purchased when needed.
You can also pick your own fabrics.
The cost of the class for instruction is $200.00. (20$/class)
