Tarnished Windmill Teaches a New Technique That Expands on Traditional Foundation Paper Piecing

TARNISHED WINDMILL

Tarnished Windmill teaches a new technique that expands on traditional foundation paper piecing

using strip piecing to complete a lone star unit. This pattern has been designed using 3” strips.

I just finished making this quilt a few months ago. It is a very nice pattern that goes together

very nicely with NO “Y” seams. I hope you enjoy making this quilt as much as I did.

I strongly suggest that you do a color chart prior to class. I like to do my color chart on

separate paper from the pattern. You will refer to it many times during the construction

of the quilt.

If you are comfortable cutting a Judy Niemeyer pattern, go for it and go line by line. However,

if you are not comfortable cutting Tarnished Windmill; we can do it in class.

**Please have your papers and template layout sheets cut and placed in bags before class.

We will be arranging star units in the first class with the strips and papers.

Any questions, please let me know. Lucille Amos 336-643-7924
