Class: Vintage Scrappy Stars
Tutor: Mel Forrest
Times: 10am to 4pm
Level: Confident beginner/intermediate
Come and be inspired by an exquisite antique quilt and learn not one, not two, but
three different methods to sew eight-pointed stars! Test out the machine-pieced techniques and sew some samples before you settle on your favourite to create your own beautiful heirloom. This project is perfect for showcasing treasured scraps and making a feature of small quantities of fabrics, and there will be plenty of opportunity during the workshop to study the stunning range of 1930s fabrics used in the sample quilt for inspiration!
Materials required:
Scraps are perfect for this quilt, so do bring along bits and pieces from your stash
Two contrasting fat quarters and one plain background fat quarter is more than enough to sew all three samples
Matching/neutral thread for piecing
Please note that full fabric requirements for this project will not be provided as it is designed for scraps and there is no set quilt size
