Jennie`s Stripy Stripey Story Quilt
Block of the Month • Educational, G, 01-Mar-2016
Get ready to take part in Jennie’s sew-a-row style quilt.
Jennie shares the ‘how to make’ each row with us.
Jennie will guide you through with clear instructions, a row at a time, that will take in lots of simple patchwork techniques, with and without rotary cutting templates, to create her lovely story quilt.
The techniques you will learn can then be used to make lots of quilts in the future!
Raid your stash, or visit your local quilt shop or exhibition. You will need 36 Fat 1/4’s (metres of yards it doesn’t matter). This will give you enough fabric for the rows, the border, the backing and the binding – so very economical with no leftovers!
Part 1 is now available.
