Hexagon Quilted Pillow–#1

Using the Candy Dish pattern and the Hex N More template, we will make this double-sided 16″ pillow or two different pillows–one side is a  negative image of the other.  This class will have two sessions.  You will cut your pieces and learn how to sew them together in the first class.  You will machine quilt and assemble the pillow in class #2.  You will need to complete the piecing between classes #1 and #2.

  • Sewing machine with its accessories, foot control, and power cord *
  • Candy Dish pattern *
  • 1 Charm pack or 24 – 5″ squares
