Description
There are many blocks that have a light and dark side, such as Log Cabin and Half Square Triangles. There are also quilting designs that have a light and dense side. Come see how the two can play together to create an endless collection of layouts. Patterns are set up in Repeat Patterns to form the layout. From there they are placed on the quilt using Draw Pattern or Repeat Pattern. The result is stitched out continuously across the quilt top yet fits the piecing like custom. Semi-Custom quilting allows you to give your customer a “Custom Look” at an affordable price. Laptop required. Students will create several layouts for quilts using a project with imported images, patterns and boundaries.
