Workshop Description

Virginia Bound is the flagship quilt from her book "Scraps & Shirttails". Based on the traditional Rocky Road to Kansas block, she has revamped it for foundation piecing! Even the setting diamonds are string pieced.

 A wonderful border surrounds the quilt. She made this quilt using all the 'strings' and small parts left from cutting up recycled shirts to use in quilt making. It's a FUN class, no matter what fabrics the students choose. Simply go all scrappy, by separating lights from darks, or choose a two color scheme such as blues & yellows or reds & greens for a gorgeous christmas quilt.

Based on her new book Magnificent Spiral Mandala Quilts, this is her most current and most popular workshop. You'll be surprised at simple it is to design and make a Magic Mirror Mandala Quilt -- in one day you'll go from mystery to mastery! In the morning we'll use a "wedge puzzle" to design your own unique version of the quilt shown; in the afternoon you'll start sewing spirals. (To see variations of this quilt, visit the link below)
