Ahead of the Curve workshop

$145.00

Curves don’t have to be scary! In this class we’ll explore the versatility of curves to create perfect drunkard's paths and orange peel blocks using a no-pin curve method.

You’ll learn how to sew accurate curves of various sizes with templates and complete either a cushion, bag front, or make a start on a bigger quilt from one of my curve patterns – Tall Poppy, Surfacing or Bloomin’ Lot (all pictured at left).

Each student will receive a copy of their chosen pattern in class, with fabric requirements sent prior.

Whether you’re new to curves or looking to expand your skills, this is a fun and flexible class to grow your confidence.

Paper templates are included in the patterns and template plastic will be provided in class for you to trace your own.
Acrylic versions of the same templates by Jenny Haynes (Papper Sax Sten) will be available to purchase on the day.
