Stepping Stones Class: This is a one-day class designed to teach you the simplicity of foundation paper piecing along with a concept using two strips of fabric to create one very simple and appealing block design. You will need to purchase a copy of the pattern listed above for this class. The patterns include the yardage instructions, cutting instructions, and the foundation papers. Read your pattern prior to class.

Fabric Selection: Perhaps the easiest way to select your fabric for this class is to purchase three (3) sets of Bali Pops, by Hoffman Fabrics of California. You will have 120 strips of varying colors (lights, mediums, and darks). The quilt actually only requires 99 strips, 72 of which will be used to complete the quilt, the remaining of which will be used for the border. You may also chose to cut your own combination of fabrics. In this case, you will need 99 2-1/2 inch by 42 inch fabric strips in a combination of light, medium, and dark colors.

No pre-cutting is necessary for this class. Simply bring your strips and the pattern!
