Techniques you will learn
  • It can be overwhelming to organize a kit with 67 colors and hundreds of pieces — learn a simple organization technique.
  • Build an organization system that makes your project totally transportable (perfect for sew days and retreats).
  • Foundation paper piecing: while these kits look complex, they really aren’t — you’ll leave class with the skills to finish your project.
