The Avenues

Quilt Class

This quilt design has been in the works for a while, and I’m excited to finally share it with you! It’s a versatile project that’s perfect for using up scraps, yardage, or fat eighths—whatever you have on hand. Yes, it’s a scrap quilt, but don’t worry—there are plenty of creative options!

You can go for a controlled scrappy look by sticking to one color in a variety of fabrics, choose a totally scrappy style with a mix of colors and prints, or explore a themed scrappy approach using seasonal palettes, specific subjects, or fabric lines like 30’s reproductions, batiks, or Civil War prints.

The most important part? Have fun choosing your fabrics and let your creativity shine!

Linda will guide you through the process in making this fun quilt which will result in a 40" x 49" or 50" x 59" quilt depending on your size preference.
