Course Description
Students will make 4 sets of flying geese (4 per set) by 4 different methods: 1) Stitch and flip; 2) paper piecing; 3) 4 at a time quilt in a day method; 4) four at a time traditional method.
Also we will use half square triangles. They are a wonderful way to make scrap quilts and use up odd sizes that are left over from other quilts. Students will learn four ways to make triangles and then will use these triangles to design different quilt blocks.
