Showcase your favourite fabrics in a striking Square in a Square quilt with Janet Goddard.Make your fabric collection the star of the show in this beautiful Square in a Square quilt workshop with Janet Goddard. This clever design uses a simple block construction to create a stunning overall effect when the blocks are arranged on point.
It’s the perfect project for showcasing special fabrics, particularly if you enjoy fussy cutting motifs to feature in the centre of each block. Alternatively, embrace a colourful scrappy look by combining a variety of prints, patterns and colours to create a quilt full of character.
Janet will guide you through the construction of the blocks and show you how to arrange them on point to achieve the finished design. Take inspiration from her vibrant quilt, which combines bright fabrics with contrasting pink setting triangles, or choose a colour palette that reflects your own style.
Spread over two Saturdays in January and February, this workshop gives you the opportunity to develop your patchwork skills, experiment with fabric combinations and enjoy working on a rewarding project with expert guidance from Janet.
Whether you love bold, bright fabrics or prefer a more coordinated look, discover how simple squares can become something truly special.
Beginners welcome. Participants should be able to use a rotary cutter safely and stitch an accurate 1/4" seam.
You will need a sewing machine, basic sewing supplies, threads and fabrics. Detailed requirements will be emailed to you in advance of the class.
