Bobbie Bergquist: Three Ways to Do Quilt as You Go in Small Spaces (Half Day WS, Thurs, 2/27/25, 1-4pm)

Three Ways to Do Quilt as You Go in Small Spaces
Half-Day Workshop
1 pm - 4 pm, Thursday, February 27

Are your quilt blocks different sizes? Do your quilt tops shift? Do you have trouble finding a flat surface large enough and at a comfortable height to baste your quilt layers together? Discover how to prepare and assemble quilt blocks, see all your seams. No guesswork here! You can measure the bottom, middle, and top of your quilt and they will all measure the same. There will also be a 1/4-inch line to cut, which will also square your quilt. Add binding and you have a perfect quilt.
All Levels

Required class kit, $25 payable to the instructor in class, includes 3 sets of printed directions for all three techniques, and an instructional USB. Email Bobbie at Joe@QuiltersTreasure.com with any questions regarding this class or class supplies. Also available in class (optional) a 14" Quilters Rule Ruler, $19.70.
