Hidden Agenda - Quilt As You Go!



Hidden Agenda is the perfect quilt for that very special fabric you have been collecting. With a variety of fussy cut squares, the pattern accommodates practically any fabric that you throw at it. There are large blocks for the pieces that you just cannot bare to cut into, and there are smaller blocks that let you feature moments of scenic fabrics.  Hidden Agenda is perfect for panels as well and sews up beautifully in both print and solid fabrics! There are no limitations, only your creativity! This workshop will also focus on learning the "Quilt as you go" method of quilting!


Lori will walk you through the pattern and guide you in creating this one-of-a-kind quilt that highlights your most special fabrics. In this workshop, you will learn fussy cutting, colour balancing, cutting, piecing, and QAYG (quilt-as-you-go) techniques!

This workshop runs over 4 Saturday sessions and includes the cost of the Hidden Agenda Quilt Pattern by Angela Pingel.
