Star 60 + 2 - on ZOOM
Are you ready to dive into the world of 60 degree quilting designs? Learn the techniques and perfect your skills using Studio 180's Star 60 tool.
Join Susan Madu of Modern Blended Quilts for 9 hours of instruction; over 3 ZOOM sessions:
1. September 21, 2024 - Star 60 tool
2. October 19, 2024 - Star 60 Log Cabin Technique Sheet
3. November 16, 2024 - Hallow Cube 60 Technique Sheet
You will be using techniques used in other Studio 180 tools (some of our favourite things) by using the same concept of oversizing and trimming down into the realm of 60 degree shapes. We begin with a basic Star 60 unit, containing a diamond and two small triangles in 17 different size options, and then team this unit up with a multitude of additional shapes to create an array of amazing 60 degree quilt projects.
Of course, you will find all the same benefits you have come to expect from every Studio 180 Design tool. There are multiple size options, oversizing and trim down for better accuracy, fine lines for higher precision, right and left hand instructions, free videos, supporting patterns, incredible design options, ease of use with other patterns, and an increased success rate for every level quilt maker.
