I choose different fabrics for each star as I like a scrappy look you could use a smaller pallet of fabrics if you prefer. But you will need 4 different fabrics to make one star. If you’re unsure of fabric choices then we can make one star and then go to the shop and choose more fabrics to complete the project.
For each of the four stars in the cushion you will require.
1 10"square of calico or scrap fabric.
1 x fat⅛ for the centre
1 x fat⅛ for inner star
1 x fat⅛ for 2nd inner star and cushion piping
1 x fat¼ for the outside of the star and binding
1 x fat¼ of white fabric for cushion borders
Thread for piecing.
Rotary cutter, cutting mat and ruler.
Scissors
Pencil and sharpener.
Sewing machine and instruction book. A walking foot (for quilting through several layers) would be most useful, as well as an extension quilting table if you have one.
Glue stick or pen.
Basic sewing kit.
Look forward to meeting you on the day
To finish,
18” cushion pad
Fabric for back,
Wadding
We will discuss completing the cushion in class and talk through the options for the back.
