Wind Drifter - Weekender Retreat
Do you like patterns that look complicated but are actually really easy? Get ready to WOW yourself and your friends with this fresh and modern design by Robin Pickens!
Wind Drifter uses half-square triangles to form pinwheels of motion, while also letting some big prints show off in the larger arrow forms. Choose to do yours in a nautical seascape like the sample or in bright vibrant colours like Tula Pink or Kaffe Fassett!
Finished size: 65in x 65in

| Instructor: | Colleen McConnell |
| Instructor Bio: | Colleen's been collecting fabric, quilting and daydreaming quilts for more than 30 years and has grown into a teacher, pattern developer and tester. Within her friend group, Colleen's superpower is making patterns easier to understand, and she's all about helping students find their quilting 'wow' factor with projects that look difficult, but only you need to know they are not! Here at the shop, the staff gave her the nickname 'One Block Wonder Woman" because of her fascination with the One Block Wonder style of quilting. She teaches this and other courses in serial and weekend warrior formats |
