In 2025, they published "Make It Home" - a collection of patterns than can be used to make home dec projects in addition to quilts. In each of the six 3-Yard Workshops this year, we will feature one of those patterns. We will teach you the fundamentals of the block or blocks used in the pattern and you'll make one in class. Then, we will discuss how to finish the various projects using the pattern - pillows, table runners, placemats or quilts - which you will do at home.
