Pre-cutting the fabrics is a mandatory requirement prior to taking this course. Please begin preparing for class at least 1-WEEK prior to the class to make sure that you are able to get familiar with your pattern and complete the pre-cutting before hand. It is important that you have your pre-class cutting completed. If this step is not completed, you will have a very difficult time keeping up and participating in the instruction. We recommend reading through your entire pattern before beginning.

Fabric Selection: There are two different colorways displayed on the cover of the Dining With the Stars Tablerunner. Please refer to the yardage charts on the back of your pattern when choosing fabrics.

Prepare the Foundation Papers: Please refer to and follow the instructions under ‘Foundation Papers’ on page 2 of your pattern. You only need to cut one page of the foundations papers prior to class. Judy will demonstrate an easier method of doing this in class!

Preparing the Template Sheets: Please refer to and follow the instructions under ‘Paper Piecing Templates’ on page 2 of your pattern.

Cutting Instructions: Please read through ‘Cutting Instructions for (1) Table Runner’ on page 2 of your pattern before beginning the steps below. We recommend checking our website for pattern corrections before you begin cutting your fabric. Note: After the cutting is completed, please make sure all of the Template Sheets, Foundation Sheets, and fabric pieces are placed in the correct bags before coming to class!
