Demonstration : Kathy Doughty / Rulers
"60 Degrees and More - Break
out of the square routine and try working with 60 degrees! Hexagons,
diamonds, triangles and more make up interesting designs that look hard but are
really easy. We will also examine how to let colour and fabric designs do
the work to make the blocks exciting.
Kathy Doughty will be demonstrating
using the Hex N More and Side Kick rulers by Jaybird Quilts.
Feel free to bring along any
templates you may already have to familiarise yourself with any differences.
There will be rulers available for sale on the day."

Square" blocks, they are due at
this meeting.
