Class Description: Accent curves with piping! This technique is wonderful for traditional curved patterns and great for contemporary designs. In class students will learn to make perfect piping and add that piping to the lively, curvy macaroni block. Piping adds pizzazz! Quilting and finishing will be discussed. A kit for purchase in class will contain pre-cut fabrics to make two 6" blocks.


Class Supply List::

  • students work from a pre-cut kit.
  • Red, or chocolate brown thread (50 or 60wt cotton)
  • Thin thread of chocolate brown or red (I suggest WonderFil InvisaFil or #100 silk or invisible... thin threads will be available for purchase in class)

Supplies/tools:

  • Sewing machine, fresh needle, bobbin, bed exten­sion (if you have one), sewing machine manual. A machine with adjustable needle positions is desirable.
