Do you like red? We are BIG fans. For a bit of fun, we are offering 5 quilts for the year, varying in size, complexity etc. Some will be quite quick to do and others will require more time.
They will have different techniques, blocks, layouts etc. There will be five little red quilts suitable for displaying on walls, stacked on a chair, in a basket to be displayed at Christmas or all year round. The sizes will vary, the first measures 18.5 x 22.5 inches, the second approx 17 inches square and the third is 24 inches square. Participants only know what they will be working on from one class to the next. You will be shown the project for the next class.
