"Shortline" Strip Club Quilt Class
This jelly roll friendly quilt is the second in our Strip Club series. In this class you will learn the technique for constructing an on-point strip quilt and other skills including:
Strip Tube Construction
How to calculate setting triangles in an on-point quilt
Tips on adding borders to your quilt
A trick for finding color value so your quilts will have good contrast
Students should come to class with a jelly roll (Minimum 34 strips @ 2.5"x 42") If you are interested, my quilt sample is made with a jelly roll called Happiness by Pippa Shaw that I picked up at Southern Charm Quilting. So bright and colorful!

| Instructor Bio: | I have been a quilter/instructor for 13 years. The first memory quilt I made was from my husband and my son's jeans. I am blessed to love and be loved by a decorated EOD Veteran. In order to celebrate and commemorate his service I made him a memory quilt out of his military uniforms. Along the way, I started making Memory Quilts for family members who had lost a loved one. Knowing that they would wrap the quilt around themselves and feel connected to that person again sparked a passion in me. Powerful memories come back when we see a familiar fabric. It makes the memories tangible! Sam Swieszcz amemoryquilt@comcast.net (417) 650-1364 |
