May 8, 10am - 3pm

Instructor:  Jean Kearney

This adorable quilt is actually super easy using the Square in a Square® technique! Nine stars create a beautiful wall hanging, but you can add more blocks or borders to make a quilt of any size. Whether brand-new or advanced quilters, students will learn how to produce blocks with perfect points every time – without cutting or sewing a single triangle! Use patriotic colors for a great table runner, bright colors for a fun baby quilt, or beautiful batiks for a more exotic bed quilt.

Jean Kearney is a certified instructor in the Square in a Square® technique, using one ruler to create both simple and complex blocks without worrying about making odd measurements or cutting out triangles! Each student will receive a Square in a Square® ruler – included in the workshop!
