There are many ways to construct the same quilt.

From all the different forms of appliqué, foundation piecing and machine constructed blocks to putting your final design together into an interesting and eye catching composition.
Modern, Contemporary and Traditional quilts all rely on great technique from block construction to sashing, borders and binding. Lorena will guide you in finding your favourite way to achieve your goal.
