Comfort Quilt Day
Instructor: Barbara McDaniel
Leads a class in.....Quilt As You Go:
Barbara explains the Quilt As You Go Technique
There are several different Quilt As You Go Techniques.
Today we are learning the strip method.
We are checking out Barbara's class sample quilts
First Step:
Choosing coordinating fabrics...
Cutting them into 6 inch strips
I chose pale blues...
Betty chose florals...
Now to cut the batting:
Batting is also cut into 6 inch strips...
Batting was piled up on all of the tables...
Then we made strip sandwiches...
