Description
Strips & Strings scrap patchwork quilt
This delightful workshop about a great scrap quilt called Japanese Stars & Lanterns, and it similar to antique quilts which were made with strips or strings. This patchwork can be done by hand or by machine. It is great for beginners too, because there is no accurate seam allowance needed.
The pattern is available on our website by clicking here.
Rotary cutting turntable
For trimming up the squares use a rotary cutting turntable and a 6 1/2″ square ruler. It makes life much simpler when cutting for a large quilt.
