With Nancy Mahoney – www.nancymahoney.com

Tuesday, Apr. 5, 2016    9am-3pm       $60 members, $70 nonmembers

Here’s the description from Nancy’s web site:
“This little quilt sparkles with traditional charm. Nancy takes students through a step-by-step class, with rotary cutting and piecing techniques for making accurate triangle squares. Her methods make short work of this tricky-looking block. Design and color possibilities will be discussed. Pattern included for each student. Finished size: 44″ x 44.”

Note: This workshop is replacing the “Electric Quilt Software” workshop announced previously.
