Just Spooling Around There’s something special about a spool quilt and this quilt designed by Edyta Sitar is extraordinary—but then I’ve never seen anything from Laundry Basket Quilts that I don’t like! I love how the bottom spool has fallen over and has unwound around the quilt to become the border appliqué.
Leslie is teaching the first installment of Just Spooling Around on March 9th. You’ll learn how to make the spool blocks from strip panels. It’s a good way to use up your stash, but you could also splurge and use some of the fabulous precuts in the shop. Hmmm, what about the new batik precuts? We’ve scheduled a second class to cover the appliquéd border on May 11th. Have you seen the scissors that Leslie quilted in the setting blocks? Perhaps she’ll share something about this in this class as well. Just Spooling Around Part 1—the Spool Block March 9 Just Spooling Around Part 2– The Appliquéd Border May 11. Hope to see you in class!
