ALL CLASSES ARE 3 DAYS
#1 LABYRINTH WALK
DEBBIE BURMER
LABYRINTH WALK, A Two Block Wonder, from The Guilty Quilter, is 84” x 84” square. This quilt was inspired by a marble chapel floor in Naples, Italy. This quilt is suitable for a confident beginner.
You will need to buy the pattern and follow the cutting instructions inside. Have everything labeled carefully with the size and number of pieces, so you’ll be ready to sew.
The pattern calls for shades of white, gray and black, but I wanted mine to look like gray stone walls with a green grass “floor.” I’ve also seen it done in shades of purple. Use your imagination when choosing your colors. There are lots of color combinations online.
# 2 SUPERNOVA
DAUNE WALKER
This is my version of Supernova Quilt.
Each block consists of 6 fabrics including the background
The finished quilt will measure 63" square, and is made up of 9 blocks. Each of those 9 blocks is made up of smaller sub-units. This quilt can be made with just 4, 6, 9, or 12 blocks to suit your need.
I used a fat eight bundle (38 pieces) to have a variety to choose from. You will need 3 different color combinations per block for a total of 27 pieces.
I used the same fabric for the center squares and half square triangles in blocks (white print) and the same fabric (pink) for the squares and half square triangles in blocks and outside borders.
PATTERN COST $10.00
Quilt In A Day Half-Square Ruler – Available in class.

# 5 OMBRE BLOSSOM
NANCY HORSLEY
The Ombre fabrics do the hard work for you and their arrangement creates the dramatic impact of this quilt. The pieces are large. Strip piecing simplifies things from the start. The pattern quilt is 60" x 72" but can easily be modified with additional blocks and borders. My sample is slightly smaller without the borders specified in the pattern.
