Dogs In Sweaters

Learn to elevate your piecing skills to make this cute dachshund sporting a cute sweater which can be made into a pillow.  Make more blocks to create a litter of pups to make a small quilt (45” x 60”) or a large quilt (73” x 76”).  This project uses conventional patchwork techniques.  The goal of the class is to piece one block which can be made into a pillow cover or incorporate into a quilt.
