Class Description - You will learn a strip piecing technique that expands on a traditional foundation paper piecing approach to complete lone star units. Strips are sewn onto foundation paper to complete what is called a ‘Strip Set’. After the strip sets are completed, they are cut apart, rearranged, and resewn into a diamond star point. The Summer Solstice star uses 3.5” strips for the strip piecing. It incorporates a paper pieced New York Beauty (NYB) block and a general assembly process designed with no Y-Seams. This class will require some pre-cutting of pattern and fabric.
