There
are dozens of different patchwork and quilting techniques, so students in the Beginners class, try some of the various methods and then make 12-inch ‘blocks’.
The blocks are then quilted and assembled to make a sampler quilt in their own
choice of size, style and colour. In some of the photos, you can see them standing on
chairs and looking through what seems to be a magnifying glass, in fact it’s a
reducing glass and a great aid for arranging and balancing the block ‘setting’!

lost several blocks after this photograph was taken. To her great
credit, she re-made them and completed the wonderful quilt below!
