Octagon Kaleidoscope Quilt

Class Description

This quilt is great using border prints, but also fun with regular yardage. You will use eight repeats in the fabric to make your kaleidoscope octagons. Choose from several settings. This is a four-session class: Session 1: Align your panels and cut into rectangles for cutting on die cutter Session 2: Begin to piece together your triangles into octagons, or spinning octagons Homework: Between Session 1b and 2a, complete making your octagons Session 3: Design your quilt top and begin sewing together quilt blocks and sashing Session 4: Add borders, if desired Class Scheduling and Format: Classes are offered in an open-workshop setting, where students may be working on different projects. Each workshop will have no more than 5 students, and start/end times are staggered to ensure that each student gets individualized attention while working on their project. Be sure to schedule all four sessions. Please provide your own rotary cutters, cutting mats, pins, thread, bobbins, and extra needles. Two irons and ironing boards will be available for shared-use in the classroom. If you would prefer to bring your own iron, I do have several small table-top ironing boards available for use. Don't forget your sewing machine! If you don't have a sewing machine, please let me know ahead of time. I do have a limited number available as needed.
