< Workshops Workshop: 01-Twinkle

I’m so excited to start teaching Twinkle, my liberated star.  Based on my super-sized star quilt, I decided that it was time to teach this as it is one of my favorites:

  • Skills taught/learned: Learning how to make a liberated blocks and how to assemble blocks of different shapes and sizes into a harmonious compelling quilt.
  • Liberated blocks taught: (Star, sawtooth, Churn Dash). No two blocks are alike… different sizes, colors, fabrics, dimensions!  This makes it so personal and unique.

Create a Liberated Eight Point Star quilt using a variation of the nine-patch block, then learn how to place different size blocks together into one big, beautiful quilt.  You will learn about improv sewing, designing blocks with personality, all while keeping your work squared and accurate.
