Cabin in the Woods Quilters - Pickle Dish Quilt Class

Try your hand at Paper Piecing and Curved Piecing with our Nested Petal Curve template designed to be used with our Nested Petal Template. Lots of paper piecing options inside the block from beginner to advanced.  You choose the pattern.

Workshop:
• We will be learning how to cut curved pieces on the grain line, prepare and sew a simple foundation pieced
pattern, trim our paper piecing and sew basic curved pieces into a block. If time permits we will make two blocks
that can be sewn together. Students who are more experienced in Foundation Piecing may try the more advanced
foundation piecing blocks.
Each student will be provided with the foundation piecing patterns printed to use for class and one additional pattern
to take home and copy for additional blocks.
