Join me for an adventure into background fillers. We will explore the basic oldies as well as throw in many new and innovative designs that will add elegance and texture to your quilts. Many of these designs are versatile enough to use as all over’s as well as small backgrounds. I will also add some texture designs for the landscape type of quilts that you may have. A little bit of everything.

I will also show you how to connect blocks and all your quilting on a quilt to make your quilting time more productive. We will discuss many ways to quilt traditional quilts and various blocks. You will be able to tackle that next quilt with a lot of design ideas.
