Welcome to Zen Tree (6 Hours)
This is a fun day of learning techniques that will result in this lovely Zen Tree which measures 12" square. First we will learn improv piecing to create a tree. We will then learn the walking foot quilting designs and how to place them within the tree. To finish the quilt we will make a faced binding that can also be used to hang your quilt. Most students will finish this project in the class. - CONFIDENT BEGINNER AND UP.
