Are you intrigued by improvisational quilt projects but don't quite know where to start? River Rocks takes you by the hand and guides you through the construction of a quilt top inspired by stacked rocks. It comes with a set of specific dimensions and a suggested layout for your rocks, making sure your blocks all fit together in the end. Cutting your rocks at random angles guarantees that your quilt will be one of a kind!

Want to take a bite out of your stash? This is the class for you! We will learn several techniques for creating crumb quilts and focus on creating the "Twist and Shout" quilt found in Crumb Quilts: Scrap Quilting The Zero Waste Way.

This novice class places starts from the basics -- preparing, measuring and rotary cutting fabric, perfecting the elusive 1/4" seam and pressing. It will then lead you through the process of making a sampler quilt that can be as funky or traditional as you like. You'll make a variety of traditional pieced blocks, along with some applique, and they'll all be assembled into a quilt top that you'll be proud to display as your first ever quilt. But not your last! There will be weekly homework assigned.
