Classes

Listen Quilt
Sometimes when we listen for answers to complex questions, we get them in little pieces, like
building blocks. In the Listen Quilt, a complex looking design is broken down into simple
building blocks for a fun sewing experience. In class we will make one of each building block so
you can master the trellis design in the center. And if you’re going to add a border, make it
amazing! We will, of course, also review how to make the border. The Listen Quilt measures
approximately 55 x 70 inches.

few necessities slung on my back. Slings over your shoulder to your back. Can’t wait to try it while riding my
bike. This bag has a pocket on the inside and a zipper one on the outside. Easy zippers to put in. Don’t let it
