Japanese patchwork is delightfully quirky and addictive, the patchwork blocks in Chuck Nohara’s 2001 New Patchwork Patterns are no exception. Once a month, Lorena will guide you as you create your own masterpiece sampler quilt. Classes are guided by the needs of the students and loosely structured to cover block and layout design, different methods of construction including machine and hand piecing options, applique techniques and English paper piecing. With 2001 block options ranging from the idiosyncratic to the traditional there are enough blocks for a lifetime of quilts! (All students are required to own a copy of the book, available from Material Obsession).

There are many ways to construct the same quilt.
We all have our preferences and finding your favourite is a matter of trial and error. This class is for beginners through to experienced quilt makers who want to learn great techniques for quilt making.
