Description
Instructor Mike Ellingsen has set a personal goal to design a quilt each year based on an item from the Vesterheim collection. Fyresdal is his choice for 2026, inspired by one of the coverlets in Vesterheim's collection. There is a lot of cutting! A cutting list will be sent out before class so students can arrive and start sewing right away. If you wish, you may change the color palette to customize your quilt.
Prerequisites
Students must be able to sew an accurate 1/4-inch seam (no set-in seams or curved piecing required.)
