Valerie Miller Teaches Graphic Curves at Creativ Festival.

Ease of construction and quality finishing techniques will assist in our goal of taking home a well executed small tailored quilt and provide a new resource of tools and ideas for other endeavours. Pre-requisite: Basic machine sewing and rotary cutting skills. Pre-order kit: $40 (6 colourways) includes pattern, materials for top, batting and backing. Details provided with registration.
