Workshop: Strip Pieced Mariner’s Compass Basics with Robin Ruth

Have you ever wanted to make a Mariner’s Compass block but were too intimidated?  Not a fan of paper piecing or using tedious templates?  You’ll love this class for learning how to make 16-point compass blocks in 16 different sizes using Robin’s design rulers and strip-piecing method.

In this workshop, Robin will give a detailed overview of the modern technique and projects using her system of rulers, books, and patterns for Strip Pieced Mariner’s Compass blocks and variations.  You’ll learn all the basics for making either a Skinny Robin or Fat Robin Mariner’s Compass block.  She brings the Mariner’s Compass block into the 21st century with her modern technique.  She will also show us projects and different ways for you to create your own modern mariner’s compass project.  You’ll be making one of the blocks featured above, but here’s a sample of what you can create once you learn the basics!  You’ll be amazed at the variety of projects that can be created!
Skill level:  Intermediate
Also note this class will be held at Quilting for Community in Chatsworth and Robin will have her rulers available for sale.
