March Class detail pictures of Cottage Rose and Alternative Rambling Rose

Sample of the Quilt


Details of the Border of Cottage Rose

Details of individual blocks.

Cottage Rose, is a great way to incorporate a large color palette. The sample has a wide selection of fabrics from the same fabric line. There are 9+ different fabrics contained in the sample. This quilt uses strip piecing, and applique to get the affect.

For those who are new or who want an easier quilt, you can do Rambing Rose pictured below, I will bring instructions for both to class.

Previous Class participants show off their projects.
