Workshop: Modern and Trendy Quilt Blankets

Do you want to make a modern and trendy quilt for a beloved baby/toddler?  I can teach you how to make one.

 Make A MODERN and TRENDY baby/toddler quilt TOP.

We usually cut and sew with precision when making traditional blocks and quilts. In this workshop, we are going to go against the grain and cut and sew these blocks with a lot more fun and freedom. We will then trim those blocks and assemble them into a modern and trendy quilt-top that you can then quilt and bind.  Participants will be given guidance on how to assemble a complimentary pieced backing and how to quilt and machine bind the piece.
