Teeny Tiny Table
Topper
Tuesday, Mar. 18th, 1:00-5:00 pm with
Joellyn Quinn; Cost: $20. Don’t be afraid of tiny pieced projects.
This simple quilt is made up of ¾” finished squares, but is
sewn first in strips and then sub-cut to make the smaller pieces easier to
work with. Sample is done with
a black background, but any color scheme makes a charming table topper or
wall hanging. The best part is
the number of fabrics required—only three, which is great for those of
us who have trouble putting together color series. Size: 14" x
14".
