I’ve had this simple quilt sandwich basted and rolled up waiting for its addition of scraps and stitchin’ to make it into a ticker tape. I got to thinking about our limited basting space in the class room and that a simple, modern AND most importantly small quilt could do the trick for teaching the basic threes to quilt finishing.
Stuff Three’s:
- Quilt Top
- Batting
- Quilt Back
Do Three’s:
- Baste
- Quilt
- Bind
The end result, this modern baby quilt! We’ll cover the three’s in the class, and discuss what straight stitched quilting design to execute, plus centering and squaring a quilt and troubleshooting.
The design of the stitching is really seen from the solid front. I think this is Kona Pond. I straight stitched some gentle curves and left a space to straight stitch a third in. I added a few lines of red.
It’s bound in one of my favorite Cake Rock Beach dots.
And the backing is one of my stockpiled Alexander Henry Raindrop Stripe.
I think it will be a super fun class.
I’ve got Add Zip To Your Pillow class next Thursday if you need some new Spring flare. I have my fabric all picked out.
