Stack & Cut Hexagon Quilts with Marci Baker
UPDATED 7/14/2022
With your favorite large-scale, high-contrast print, you can create a beautiful quilt design! Find surprise and beauty with this simple technique to stack layers and cut pieces from large, high-contrast prints. Swirling pattern repeats add magical details to 6 identical triangles coming together like a kaleidoscope or millefiori design.
To learn this technique, you will be provided in class with a pre-selected print for a small table runner, 24" x 65". Cutting shapes, selecting the best designs, and piecing tips will be covered in detail. Select and bring fabrics that match the fabric provided in class. Fabric options of the pre-selected fabric kits and the instructions for ordering will be emailed to you after class registration has been received. A picture of the Table Runner can be found on the Supply List.
If desired, bring your favorite fabric so that you can begin stacking and cutting your fabrics for your own unique, serendipitous quilt after the above demo of sectioning and layering. Marci will assist those who need help selecting or cutting their own fabrics. Full details on how to select fabrics can be found in the Supply List and/or Video below.
Workshop will include 1 hour for lunch.
