You do not want to miss the 2024 Quilting Block of the Month! Diana has outdone herself with this beautiful design and you will use a variety of techniques to complete this unique quilt throughout the year. The finished size is 75″ x 75″ and will certainly be a work of art. Appropriately named “Not Your Grandma’s BOM” 2.0 you will have a quilt everyone will fight over.
Major skills: half square triangles, flying geese, appliqué, sewing curves, paper piecing & strip piecing.
Cost: $400 course fee includes in person instruction and custom pattern. An incredible value ($33 per class) for all of the techniques we’ll cover, custom quilt pattern, video tutorials, and more. Or you can opt for the virtual session which includes monthly videos, instruction booklets, and printables but no class meetings for a $250 course fee.
We are offering both in-person classes and virtual options; click the Upcoming Dates tab to see all class options.
