Beginning Quilting - Algorithm Quilt
An algorithm is a set of finite instructions that solves a problem. Quilting is hardly a problem, but in this fun & creative quilting design/technique, you will follow instructions to create a modern design of layer cakes. A simple block is made to look more complicated with one cut! Spend a Saturday with Sarah, who will teach you about how to work with 10" squares and piece elaborate larger elaborate prints like Kaffe Fassett or Tula Pink together to make something something beautiful. First session will be about cutting & design, and second session will be using our design walls to assemble your blocks into something beautiful!
