Class Description: Renewal is a two-block quilt set on point. This is a real technique packed class containing two different methods of making Cat’s Cradle segments, eight at a time half square triangles, my unique method to speed up four square completion, and how to determine the math formula for creating setting triangles. There are a few more tricks up my sleeve as well.
Finished quilt size is 83 inches square.

Instructor bio:
My first exposure to quilt making was at my grandmother's knee, literally, as she peddled on her 1903 Singer. It was fascinating to see how fast that treadle could go. Along with sparking my early interest in the sewing machine, she also let me play with her scrap bag, sometimes even letting me keep some of the wonderful scraps found inside. I started my first quilt as a teenager and have never lost interest or been bored by the process.
