Pyramids and Jewels 2 for 1 Workshop

Pyramids and Jewels - Two quilts for the price of one. We make Thousand Pyramids in the morning session using a Charm Pack (5" squares) and a background fabric. This quilt was published in Modern Patchwork Magazine, 2014. (This is an all day class or can be split into 2 days with 3 hours each).

Here is one of my class samples, again made with 5" squares. This is a recent Benartex fabric collection. This time I added an outer border. Yes, I can even teach the students my Magical Mitering Method with NO y-seams - so easy!

I started with a stack of 5" charms:

And another Thousand Pyramids quilt:

Pick up all the scraps from making the first quilt and you get the Fractured Jewels quilt for the afternoon class. Add a little more fabric to expand your scraps and - voilà - we have another small quilt.

Quick cutting and piecing techniques are taught using a 60 degree ruler. Innovative designing and the bonus of learning what else your 60 degree ruler can do is also taught. 

The techniques learned in this power-packed class can be used with other sizes of squares and strips. Let me show you a traditional Thousand Pyramids quilt, with bigger units, so you get the picture!

I have a LOT of class samples to inspire you and your guild members. Questions? Send me an email (kratovil@his.com) for the Supply List, too.
