This block shines as a two-color quilt or becomes quite playful when designed as a scrappy quilt. You will create enough blocks to construct a 40" x 40" lap quilt, wall hanging or table topper. The blocks created in the block party classes will be cut using the Acuquilt cutting system. This system improves accuracy in cutting and reduces the stress on your hands often felt while cutting large amounts of small units of fabric for the quilt blocks.

Whether you are an experienced weaver or just a beginner, pick-up band weaving on the inkle loom is a portable, satisfying, and surprisingly easy way to create elaborate patterns with minimal equipment. The pick-up technique is used in many weaving traditions, and the finished products can be made into bookmarks, dog leashes, instrument and purse straps, and belts. We will focus on traditional Nordic and Baltic pick-up weaving using linen and wool threads. We will begin by getting familiar with the inkle loom, practicing the basic weaving technique, and learning how to read a pattern, and then we will start working on our projects. Depending on how quickly you weave, you may create a couple of bookmarks or a longer strap that can be used for a bag, camera, or musical instrument. On the second day, we will go over warping the inkle loom so that you have the skills you need to do it on your own later.
