Two Quilt Pattern Options:

We’re doing it again for 2024! We are giving you 2 quilt options. One quilt has a more modern feel called Urban Owls and the other quilt has a more traditional look called Bridle Path. More details below.
 
By teaching both of these in class we hope to really help you learn new techniques. We will be going over the techniques for both quilts in class and you can get some great tips for future projects. We hope that they will be something that you enjoy working on next year. 

Bridle Path Quilt - pattern by Lynn Wilder and Marcus Fabrics

Bridle Path is a very traditional queen size quilt that could easily be turned into 2 lap or twin size quilts if you wanted. We have the fabrics in stock and will be making kits for it.

Urban Owls Quilt - Pattern by Wendy Williams of Australia

Urban Owls is a super fun quilt that has lots of different piecing elements. Foundation piecing, appliqué with wool and cotton, lots of color and pattern. We will not be making full kits for this one, but will be bringing in a lot of fabrics that will work for the backgrounds and bold textures. We will certainly help you pick fabrics for the Urban Owls quilt so you have something unique in the colors and patterns you like. We will also have wool options for you when that time comes.
