First Date: Thursday, July 27, 2017
Teacher: Gerry Terninko Brief Class Description: Let’s have fun learning how to make blocks using your Accuquilt Mix & Match Go Qubes. Classes will be held monthly on the last Thursday of the month. Each month we will make a different block. For this first month, we will be making the X Block. You can use any size Mix & Match Go Qube to make this block. The instructions will be the same, but the finished size will match the size of the Qube that you are using. Fabric: We suggest that you use the same fabrics throughout the year so that you will have coordinating blocks that can be put together into a quilt. With that in mind, please use the following guidelines when purchasing your fabrics:
Dark fabric Medium fabric 1 Medium fabric 2 Light fabric Background fabric
1 yard 1 yard 1 yard 1 yard 2 yards
This does NOT include any yardage for sashing and/or borders. Thread:
Mettler Metrosene (CTH # 1161) thread for piecing
