Love scraps? Bet you can’t just make one of these happy scrappy Potato Chip quilts!
Each 12” inch block uses eighteen 2 1/2” x 4 1/2” strips sewn together in an easy pattern. You’ll cut your fabrics before class and whip up a few blocks in class. The blocks can be sewn together to create a scrappy quilt or you can add sashings and cornerstones to add some posh to your quilt.

Description:
Have you seen quilts with free-flowing curves and wondered, how did they do that? If so, this is the class for you. Is precision not your strong point? No problem! Precision isn't needed for Improv. All you need is an idea and an open mind. Bring your ideas or even some inspirational photos you can build from.

 This is a techniques class where you'll become comfortable cutting your fabric free form and sewing curves. By the end of the day, you'll have a 12"x12" mounted art piece you'll be able to hang on your wall.

During class you may use tools available in the room, but you will also get information about what tools you would need to buy later for quilting – things like: what rulers do you really need,  rotary cutters, different size cutting mats, scissors, types of pins, basic quilt books, different weights and types of thread and what is best for quilting, “focus” and “coordinating” fabrics, and pressing.

Number of Students: 12
Cost: $45, (Payable by check to PC Quilters or Zelle to info@pebblecreekquilters.org) plus the cost of the pattern book. The book can be found on Amazon Jelly Roll Animal Quilts by Ira Rott.  

Description:
In this class attendees will start out with 2 ½” strips and end up with a cutesy animal rug! You can choose between many different animals including cat dog, elephant, fox, racoon, ladybug, and more. This is not a typical jelly roll rug. You do start with 2 ½” strips, but you won’t use batting until the entire top is made, similar to a quilt. The patterns in the book can also be incorporated into full quilts.
