  The Quartered Stripes quilt is a feast for the eyes!  No two quilts will turn out the same.  All you need is 1 1/4 yards of striped fabric for the lap size and Phyllis will show you how to turn it into this amazing quilt.  More yardage is needed for a larger quilt.  Borders are optional and Phyllis will discuss them in class.

  Susan Black at I Heart Quilts has several striped fabrics that would be perfect for this project.  Please contact her if you need some new stripes (and you know you probably do!).

  Setup for classes begins at 8:30.
