Quilting Project Descriptions
Dottie Zig-Zag
Instructor: Janet Houts
Join the Modern Quilt Movement; begin with a favorite unit you know and
love, Flying Geese, and put it in a fresh, new setting. You can make the quilt
with three columns of geese migrating north, or you can make just one
column for a table runner, your choice, for a project that incorporates easy
sewing and uses up your scraps, fat quarters, or a selected color palette.
Jelly Roll Jambalaya
Instructor: Jean Ann Wright
It take just one jelly roll to make all of the hexagons in this quilt that incorporates quick sewing methods and the use of a special Hexagon Trim Tool
designed by Jean Ann Wright for Creative Grids®. Using Jean Ann’s unique
no-math, no-measuring methods the quilter simply has fun sewing shapes
that were previously a challenge but are now so easy to sew. Directions for
smaller projects using this method are table runner or bed runner.
Seed Pods
Instructor: Janet Houts
This is a simple, modern wall quilt that features appliqué seed pods. Scatter
the stems and seed pod shapes to the center panel in your own fashion and
then piece the background to complete the quilt. Use Janet’s color palette
or choose your favorite color combination to make this fast and fun wall
quilt.
