Fabric Techniques with a Twist

An adventurous fiber artist, Lynn Rinehart is not the type of quilter to back away from a challenge. The task at hand? Add drama and flair to traditional quilt blocks with stripped fabric strata. Simply put, strata describes strips of fabric that are sewn together and then pressed flat. In this course, you will learn about Lynn's tried and true method for creating a Stripper's Knot Quilt, a variation of the Lover's Knot pattern with stripped strata to add interest. 

Begin the course with a detailed tool and supply list before diving into the technique for creating fabric strata -the heart of the quilt. Then, learn to identify the seemingly complex design into manageable units and cut and sew them together. The block will have curved piecing with 8-inch finished blocks and two borders, and Lynn will show you how to follow each step successfully.
