Hexified Panel Quilt with Liz Granberg-Jerome
Take your One Block Wonder skills and give them a twist with Liz as she guides you through making a Hexified Panel Quilt! Using 7 identical panels, cut six panels into strips and then into sets of 60 degree triangles. Learn Liz's chain piecing technique to create half-hexies that are used to build your color-flow of hexagons around the 7th uncut panel.
Two-day class on Saturday, April 12 from 10am to 4pm and Sunday, May 18 from 11am to 4pm at the Lumberyard Arts Center. Class fee of $75 includes both days of instruction and the Hexified Panel Quilt pattern.
