TASTER: Spa Quilt with Valerie Nesbitt
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 11-Sep-2020
The Spa quilt is so called because of the fabrics used. In this workshop Valerie selects a range of 5″ squares. You can use layer cakes too. This is simple four patch and rectangles, coupled with rows of squares and then joined with sashing, simple components to create a very versatile quilt.
If you didn’t want to use precuts, you could raid your fabric stash. It will look great as a scrap quilt. In the workshop notes Valerie has included some alternative sizes for you.
