Workshop: Magic of Disappearing Blocks

Presented by: Brita Nelson, the Questioning Quilter

Brita says, “This 6 hour workshop will be structured similar to a “sew along”. There are 9 blocks and I will teach each one in turn. I have 2 cameras, one on me and the sewing machine and one pointing straight down at the cutting mat and pressing surface.  I will demonstrate how to make the block along with little tips on accurate piecing and pressing. The students will then follow along and take turns showing the class how their block came out. The Zoom features allow me to answer questions immediately and help anyone who might be having a little trouble. As some students finish before others, I will show other possible layouts and talk about things like how to enlarge the pattern or use different colors and how these blocks might look in a finished quilt.”
